[cl-debian] [PATCH] Make S-XML a Debian native package
by Luca Capello 06 Nov '05

06 Nov '05

Hello all! I'm sorry for the cross-posting, but this mail concerns both mailing-lists. I'm using S-XML since I debianized it and it works with no particular problem. I can say the same for some friends of mine that install from my Debian package (which is no more publicly available as it should enter Debian official soon, but if someone wants to test it, just drop me a mail). Now, after some discussions in the Debian world about the differents CL packages [1], I'm here to propose a patch that make S-XML a Debian native package. The patch is simply the debian/ folder, which is necessary and sufficient to build a Debian package. Comments or suggestions? Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca [1] http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/cl-debian/2005-March/000000.html

[cl-debian] Bug#316959: cmucl: lisp-dist.core not found, site-init not found, broken starup,
by John D. Hendrickson 05 Jul '05

05 Jul '05

Package: cmucl Version: 18e-10 Severity: normal I consider cmucl to be the *best* of gcl and clisp because of it's stability. However. * cmucl binary names "lisp.core" using strings(1) but you distribute the file as lisp-dist.core. * only platform is i386 * startup shows compile corruption due to compiling phase * site-init doesn't seem to be the origional and look like it loads * itself recursively (that's what happened to me) $ /usr/bin/lisp -load /usr/lib/cmucl/lisp-dist.core ; Loading #p"/mnt/hda5/usr/lib/cmucl/lisp-dist.core". Error in KERNEL::UNBOUND-SYMBOL-ERROR-HANDLER: the variable |EROCL�F��4ީHZ� | is unbound. Restarts: 0: [CONTINUE] Return NIL from load of "/usr/lib/cmucl/lisp-dist.core". 1: [ABORT ] Skip remaining initializations.

Are my problems that I installed this from Sarge BEFORE it became official?

Why does cmucl need this? 2) what is "asdf" and why isn't it part of the origional distribution? 3) why does cmucl_19a-release-20040728-11.diff Include diffs to lisp.core When lisp.core is cmucl binary that has to be built - a large part of lisp - which - I might add - makes lisp impossible to use if not built with lisp(1) binary? /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Anyway.

[cl-debian] Bug#316237: ITP: cl-clg -- GTK and Glade bindings for Common Lisp
by René van Bevern 03 Jul '05

03 Jul '05

Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: "René van Bevern" <rvb(a)pro-linux.de> * Package name : cl-clg Version : 0.90 Upstream Author : Espen S. Johnsen * URL : http://sf.net/projects/clg * License : LGPL, MIT Description : GTK and Glade bindings for Common Lisp CLG provides bindings to GTK 2.6 and Glade in a Lisp-like manner. There are other GTK bindings for Common Lisp, all of them which have some disadvantages IMHO: cl-clg: Supports GTK 2.6, works fine on CMUCL, needs modifications to SBCLs FFI to support callbacks. The second issue is about to be solved, at least there are discussions and work on the SBCL development mailinglist about including these modifications. cl-gtk: Supports GTK 2.0, not as recent as CLG and talks down a pipe to a daemon like CLM. Tricky to build on recent CMUCL and SBCL. lambda-gtk: Suffers from the same problem als cl-clg, but its interface is not very lisp-alike at all. lgtk: lacks a lot of GTK 2.0 functionality, resembles the C-API as much as possible (imho a downside) cl-clg comes with example programs and the whole GTK test suite translated to CL, as well as an GTK based inspector. It cleanly compiles with CMUCL and SBCL from unstable (after the FFI modifications that are to be found http://jupiter.td.org.uit.no/lisp/sbcl-0.8.21-af.tar.gz and could also be packaged) René

[cl-debian] VCS and ubuntu
by Peter Van Eynde 25 Jun '05

25 Jun '05

Hello world, There are 2 things I would like to discuss: - To ease 'group' management of the cl packages I would like to use some Version Control System. The main requirements are: * should work with big archives (cmucl) * should support a three-way merge (original, debianised version, new upstream) * can tag releases * off-line use would be great Does anyone have strong ideas about any of the newer systems? I know that the merge is a pain with CVS, so I'm willing to use something else... - Ubuntu: I've setup a MOTUCommonLisp team[1 that could take care of the ubuntu related packages and bugs. It should be a lot easier to get changes and new packages uploaded into ubuntu then it should be into Debian, so I encourage anyone who also uses ubuntu to also become a member. Their main plan[2] is to keep syncing with debian until the 6th or the 7th of July and then 'freeze' and do fixes for a while. So any packages we would like to have as a part of breezy should either go in before the 6th (which is difficult to tell because it depends on how fast the NEW queue works) or we should get it in as an independent package. Any packages are candidates? I will try to get the new cmucl in sid as soon as they release. The pre1 package seems pretty stable enough that the release one should present no problem. cl-aspectl could be part of it, if the license problem gets resolved. Any other open issues? 1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTUCommonLisp 2: http://udu.wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyReleaseSchedule Groetjes, Peter -- signature -at- pvaneynd.mailworks.org http://www.livejournal.com/users/pvaneynd/ "God, root, what is difference?"
