[GSLL-devel] Problems combining GSLL, quicklisp, clisp

[Liam Healy]

I talked about this with Zach.  It is a bug in ASDF:

 #+clisp                     ;XXX not exactly *verbose-out*, I know
    (ext:run-shell-command  command :output :terminal :wait t)

see http://common-lisp.net/project/asdf/asdf.lisp

Try commenting out one of the read-line forms in defun gsl-config:
http://repo.or.cz/w/gsll.git/blob/6010bde348c55267e7746d5d5cd386288810723b:/init/init.lisp#l42
and see if that helps.  If it does I'll put a conditional into the GSL
code.  Otherwise I don't think there's an easy fix to GSLL.
