I checked test-force. This is failing because after the test-force system is loaded, we have this:

ASDF-TEST> (asdf:compile-file-pathname* "file1") #P"/Users/rpg/lisp/asdf/build/fasls/acl-8.2-macosx-x64/root/file1.fasl" ASDF-TEST> (probe-file (asdf:compile-file-pathname* "file1")) NIL

This despite the fact that the system is loaded:

ASDF-TEST> (asdf:operate 'asdf:load-op 'test-force) #<LOAD-OP > ((#<PREPARE-OP > . #<SYSTEM "test-force">) (#<PREPARE-OP > . #<CL-SOURCE-FILE "test-force" "file1">) (#<LOAD-OP > . #<CL-SOURCE-FILE "test-force" "file1">) (#<COMPILE-OP > . #<SYSTEM "test-force">) (#<LOAD-OP > . #<SYSTEM "test-force">))

Looks like this might be the problem:

ASDF-TEST> (asdf:output-files (make-instance 'asdf:compile-op) (asdf:find-component "test-force" "file1")) (#P"/Users/rpg/lisp/asdf/build/fasls/acl-8.2-macosx-x64/asdf/test/file1.fasl")

See that the file that is generated by compiling "file1" does not have the same pathname as (ASDF:COMPILE-FILE-PATHNAME* "file1")

This seems to give the right answer: ASDF-TEST> (asdf:compile-file-pathname* (asdf:component-pathname (asdf:find-component "test-force" "file1"))) #P"/Users/rpg/lisp/asdf/build/fasls/acl-8.2-macosx-x64/asdf/test/file1.fasl"

Is this simply a bug in the test?

Best, r
