[closure-devel] Dependency issue: NETLIB

Hi, I'm writing a cl-mechanize script to scrape a website. One of the
dependency issues is closure-html, which depends on NETLIB.

I'm using Quicklisp <http://www.quicklisp.org/> to load closure-html, but I
think closure-html expects to load its own dependencies from
NETLIB<http://www.netlib.org/>,
which is not currently available to Quicklisp.

Could closure-html have a fork which finds its dependencies with Quicklisp?

Trace:

>(ql:quickload "cl-mechanize")

TRY-RECOMPILING :R1     Try recompiling sgml-dtd
RETRY          :R2      Retry compiling component ("closure-html" "src"
"parse" "sgml-dtd").
ACCEPT         :R3      Continue, treating compiling component
("closure-html" "src" "parse" "sgml-dtd") as having been successful.
ABORT          :R4      Give up on "cl-mechanize"
ABORT          :R5      Abort main loop

Specs:

cl-mechanize 0.0
Quicklisp 2010121400
CLISP 2.49
