[elephant-devel] Fail to load elephant 0.60 on fedora core 4 + sbcl

[Ian Eslick]

What was your error with 0.6.0 on fedora and SBCL 0.9.16?  That  
configuration should work.

The current CVS HEAD requires BDB 4.4 to compile correctly.  HEAD is  
not guaranteed to be stable and should only be used by developers.

Lispworks should work with 0.6.0, we just don't have people who test  
it regularly and none of the developers use it.  If you would like to  
test the releases for Lispworks it should be easier to maintain a  
working version.

Regards,
Ian
