Subject: Slime installation instructions via elpa package-install no longer
 working!

I'm repeating this because it was rejected.

Hi,

I don't know if anybody is aware of this situation.
I have been using slime for working with CL for years (on and off - I mean
Lisp). Last time i set up SBCL and Slime on Fedora in March this year (I
think)
That time M-x package-install was still working.
But a few days ago I tried to set up SBCL and Slime on raspberry pi 4B
(just for fun) and this does not work any more!
Somebody (or something) has overwritten slime package, and replaced it with
slime-voleyball package, apparently some BS game.

How to fix this???

$ cat minimal-config.el
(setq user-emacs-directory "/tmp/temp-emacs-home")
(ignore-errors (delete-directory user-emacs-directory t))
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/") t)
(package-initialize)
(package-refresh-contents)
(package-install 'slime)
(setq inferior-lisp-program "sbcl")
(slime)
$ emacs -Q -l minimal-config.el

This works for me. Can you try that?

HTH,
Luís
