Issue Loading McClim

[Oscar Chappel]

Hello,
I am just starting to work with Common Lisp user interface development tools. I’m running SBCL, SLIME, in EMACS on a Mac using High Sierra 10.13.6.   I’m trying to use quicklisp to load McClim.  When I execute (ql:quickload :mcclim) I get the following error:

Circular dependency:
   ((#<ASDF/FIND-SYSTEM:DEFINE-OP >
     . #<ASDF/SYSTEM:SYSTEM "esa-mcclim">))
   [Condition of type ASDF/ACTION:CIRCULAR-DEPENDENCY]

Here is the stack trace:

Can anyone point me to a solution?
Thanks.
