[cl-debian] Bug#462087: clisp-dev: Includes unnecessary library references

[cl-debian] Bug#474810: clisp: FTBFS: floatparam.h:18:2: error: #error "Unknown rounding mode for type double!"
by Lucas Nussbaum 19 Jun '08

Package: clisp Version: 1:2.44-1 Severity: serious User: debian-qa(a)lists.debian.org Usertags: qa-ftbfs-20080407 qa-ftbfs Justification: FTBFS on i386 Hi, During a rebuild of all packages in sid, your package failed to build on i386. This rebuild was done with gcc 4.3 instead of gcc 4.2, because gcc 4.3 is now the default on most architectures (even if it's not the case on i386 yet). Feel free to downgrade this bug to 'important' if your package is only built on i386, and this bug is specific to gcc 4.3 (i.e the package builds fine with gcc 4.2).

[cl-debian] Bug#477169: post-sysdef-install.lisp: GET-UID broken on ECL and otherwise inconsistent

Broken at ASDF:OPERATE. >> Tracking down the problem shows that CLC's fallback implementation of GET-UID, in terms of `id', isn't working for whatever reason (presumably ECL doesn't do the right output-redirection stuff). Since ECL has a convenient FFI, it's trivial to implement a working GET-UID which doesn't need to mess with running shell commands and doing redirection. While staring at this code, I've noticed inconsistencies in the behaviour of GET-UID: * SBCL, CMU and Allegro (and now ECL) use the real uid of the process. * CLisp uses the uid of the user named by the USER environment variable. * Other Lisps call `id -u', which returns the effective uid. This is clearly an undesirable state of affairs, so the patch below makes everyone use the ruid. (Using the euid would be better, but I'm not sure that running Lisp systems in a setuid state is clever in the first place; besides, SBCL and CMU don't provide convenient ways of getting hold of the effective uid.) --- /usr/share/common-lisp/source/common-lisp-controller/post-sysdef-install.lisp.aside 2008-04-21 14:53:46.000000000 +0100 +++ /usr/share/common-lisp/source/common-lisp-controller/post-sysdef-install.lisp 2008-04-21 15:28:39.000000000 +0100 @@ -30,20 +30,21 @@ (eval-when (:compile-toplevel :load-toplevel :execute) (require :osi)) -#+clisp (defun get-uid () (posix:user-info-uid (posix:user-info (ext:getenv "USER")))) +#+clisp (defun get-uid () (posix:getuid)) #+sbcl (defun get-uid () (sb-unix:unix-getuid)) #+cmu (defun get-uid () (unix:unix-getuid)) #+allegro (defun get-uid () (excl.osi:getuid)) +#+ecl (defun get-uid () (ffi:c-inline () () :int "getuid()" :one-liner t)) #+clisp (defun world-writable?
