Hi Humberto, Thanks for this report. I've reproduced it to some extent here under OS X. I think that the error occurs before I have error handlers set up and that's why things get confused. I'm not sure why the main SBCL would go south. In any case, I'll take a look and get back to you later tonight. AIT now has it's own mailing lists (thanks to Common-Lisp.net) Thanks, On Jan 5, 2006, at 4:14 PM, Humberto Ortiz Zuazaga wrote:

I'm still having trouble with AIT. Running (ait:main) yeilds the following error:

(:install "albert" :start "2006-01-05 17:08:57" :lisp :SBCL :host-lisp-version "0.9.7.1" :host-implementation "sbcl-0.9.7.1-linux-x86" ALBERT : 1:result 1 STYLE-WARNING: Character decoding error in a #|-comment at position 65 reading source file #<FD-STREAM for "file /home/humberto/temporary/asdf-test/input/sbcl/site-systems/ albert.asd" {C765EC9}>, resyncing. :end "2006-01-05 17:09:41" )

The main sbcl then eats 100% CPU until I kill it.

Running the startup.lisp for albert by hand works. I guess it's a problem with the parser for extracting information from the asd file?
