It's probably better to ask on sbcl-help list.

The error message is about the CLC package which is the Debian's common-lisp-
controller (some sort of infrastructure that is now mostly obsoleted). It 
looks like that SLIME in Debian/Ubuntu is set up to use CLC and SBCL doesn't 
know how to load it (because probably Debian's SBCL packages also install 
configuration files). But you probably don't need CLC, so you can just install 
vanilla version of SLIME instead of the one provided in repository.
