I encountered problems using the SLIME package with SBCL. Then I wanted to switch to CVS Slime by removing the slime and cl-swank packages. Strangely, this did not work, because even after "emacs -q" the variable slime-backend is still set to "/usr/share/common-lisp/source/slime/swank-loader.lisp"
I fear I cannot reproduce this. Can you find out where the slime-backend variable comes from?
Here: ===== gismo:/home/luca# grep -r slime-backend /etc/emacs* /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50slime.el:(setq slime-backend gismo:/home/luca# ===== But what is strange is that it seems ok after a purging step: ===== gismo:/home/luca# dpkg --purge slime cl-swank (Reading database ... 105476 files and directories currently installed.) Removing slime ... remove/slime: purging byte-compiled files for emacs-snapshot remove/slime: purging byte-compiled files for emacs21 Purging configuration files for slime ... Removing cl-swank ... gismo:/home/luca# grep slime-backend /etc/emacs* gismo:/home/luca# ===== Obviously, I checked that after the purging step `slime-backend' is no more defined in GNU Emasc snapshot. Probably a misconfigured /etc/emacs* ? Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
