Hello,
This is my first post, and I hope this is an appropriate list for what
I want to ask (and I hope it's not too noob-ish a question). I'm new
to Lisp and I was following this tutorial:
  http://blog.ponto-dot.com/2009/08/14/setting-up-common-lisp-on-a-web-server
When it gets to the step where I run "./clbuild update hunchentoot
cl-unicode", I get an error with the Lift dependency.

I've tried to manually edit the wnpp-projects file in the
usr/src/clbuild directory. Here is a snippet of what I changed:
  # Projects by Gary King
  lift             get_git http://github.com/gwkkwg/lift.git
I've tried several variations on that line, to update it from the
darcs line that's in the file by default. But no matter how I edit
that file, when I try to run "./clbuild update" again, I get this
error:
  Error: cannot download unknown project lift

I just wondered if anyone might have a suggestion for how I can fix
the situation so that the clbuild update will finish, whether it's
editing the wnpp-projects file, or maybe something else.

Thank you for any assistance,
DG
