[elephant-devel] elephant 1.0 with sbcl 1.29

[mosi]

Hi,
thank you, Leslie,
that was the answer,

I checked the prerequisities in elephant,
UFFI is there.

The problem was:
clbuild update changes
uffi.asd
for:
cffi-uffi-compat.asd
as a symlink named uffi.asd

That causes memutil.fasl to fail in compilation.

This should spark sooner, as no elephant would compile.
Have a nice day,
mosi
