[Ecls-list] ASDF redesign

[Samium Gromoff]

Good day Juan,

I've encountered a rebuild problem that might be related to the
load-at-once behavior.

Testcase is as follows:

a1.lisp: -------------------

(defpackage a1)

a1.asd: --------------------

(defpackage :a1.system
  (:use :cl :asdf))

(in-package :a1.system)

(defsystem :a1
  :depends-on ()
  :components
  ((:file "a1")))

a2.lisp: -------------------

(defpackage a2
  (:use :a1))

a2.asd: --------------------

(defpackage :a2.system
  (:use :cl :asdf))

(in-package :a2.system)

(defsystem :a2
  :depends-on (:a1)
  :components
  ((:file "a2")))


With that in place we perform the following sequence:

1. The first, successful build:

  ecl -eval '(require :asdf)' -eval '(asdf:make-build :a2 :type :fasl :monolithic t)' -eval '(quit)'

2. Simulation of change, either

  sleep 2s; touch a2.lisp

or

  rm a2.o liba2.a a2.fasb


3. Problem point:

deepfire at canopus:~/local$ ecl -eval '(require :asdf)' -eval '(asdf:make-build :a2 :type :fasl :monolithic t)' -eval '(quit)'
;;; Loading #P"/usr/lib/ecl/asdf.fas"

;;; You are recommended to compile again.
An error occurred during initialization:
There exists no package with name "A1".
