New at this, sure could use a pointer. I'm not able to get the code to build consistently. It works only after a failure. So I have to do it twice to get it to go. Sure would like to know what is wrong here.
These are the directories:
/home/LE/sbcl/LE.asd ;holds the definition, as shown below /home/LE/sbcl/src ;holds the lisp source files for my project
The system is Debian, udpated today. quicklisp is installed.
These are the commands I type:
(require :asdf) (pushnew (truename ".") asdf:*central-registry* :test #'equal) (asdf:load-system :LE) (require :LE) (use-package 'LE)
in a fresh environment this fails, and dumps me in the debugger, asdf:load-system tells me:
"Component :LE not found:
Then I exit the debugger, and run it a second time and it works. Not sure, may need quotes the first time, a colon the second, i.e. it is quirky.
I have tried a lot of variations of the above, pretty much every example I've been able to find, some have "LE" instead of :LE everywhere.
Here is the value of asdf:*central-registry* after the push:
* asdf:*central-registry*
(#P"/home/LE/sbcl/" #P"/home/mordecai/quicklisp/quicklisp/")
Here is the asdf file that is located in /home/LE/sbcl:
(in-package :asdf-user)
(defsystem #:LE :name "LE" :version "0.1" :author "Thomas W. Lynch thomas.lynch@reasoningtechnology.com" :description "Lynch's extensions" :depends-on ("local-time") ;; :serial t :components((:module "src" :components ( (:file "package") (:file "fundamental" :depends-on ("package")) (:file "test" :depends-on ("fundamental")) (:file "string" :depends-on ("test")) (:file "functions" :depends-on ("test")) (:file "list-0" :depends-on ("functions")) ;; (:file "list-L" :depends-on ("list-0")) ))))
