<blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>The problem is the pull request you mentioned is that it's one of those $#!@#$-backwards-compatibility sort of change. That sort of mindset yields very rewarding refactoring sessions, to be sure, but annoys everyone else. A PR implementing proper (but optional) loading via ASDF is IMO welcome.<br></div>

<div> <br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> been there... that's why my slime locally uses<br></div>
<div> asdf:apply-output-translations for a few years now.<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> slime used to be proudly ASDF free, but maybe that's something to<br></div>
<div> reconsider, at least with an optional support.<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> this is what i'm running with (which i don't recommend for inclusion<br></div>
<div> in this form):<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> (defun binary-pathname (src-pathname binary-dir)<br></div>
<div> "Return the pathname where SRC-PATHNAME's binary should be compiled."<br></div>
<div> + (declare (ignore binary-dir))<br></div>
<div> + #+asdf<br></div>
<div> + (asdf:apply-output-translations src-pathname)<br></div>
<div> + #-asdf<br></div>
<div> (let ((cfp (compile-file-pathname src-pathname)))<br></div>
<div> (merge-pathnames (make-pathname :name (pathname-name cfp)<br></div>
<div> :type (pathname-type cfp)))))<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> but if the maintainers are open for this direction, then i may look<br></div>
<div> into packaging up and testing a PR for integrating ASDF properly, and<br></div>
<div> optionally.<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> and not forgetting this either: <a href="https://github.com/slime/slime/pull/282/">https://github.com/slime/slime/pull/282/</a><br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> currently swank can break in funny ways when used together with ASDF.<br></div>
<div> e.g. :depends-on (:swank) can be a source of great bafflement when it<br></div>
<div> reloads swank and undo's half of the contrib's, leaving some stuff<br></div>
<div> crippled. and the .slime/fasl dir can also bite you when you thought<br></div>
<div> you have deleted the fasl's, except one outlier.<br></div>
