the sax parser example code in the documentation calls the function trace-xml-log(), which seems not to be included in the s-xml package (i loaded s-xml via asdf as described in the readme.debian file).
Actually, the function `trace-xml-log' is not loaded by s-xml.asd, which resulted in not being available through ASDF. This because all which is in $s-xml/test/ are tests and examples, thus not covered by s-xml.asd.
I see 2 possibilites to improve the docs at this point:
#1: use an example without trace-xml-log(). #2: point the user to the file $s-xml/test/tracer.lisp, which does include trace-xml-log() and also the complete sax parser example code. No copy and paste needed, if we point the user to the tracer.lisp file.
I still think that the solution would be to provide an ASDF test suite (as well an example one), as I suggested in the upstream mailing list a long time ago [1]. Can you try again the sax parser example code after having loaded /usr/share/common-lisp/source/s-xml/tracer.lisp? This should solve your problem. I'm working on providing two new ASDF systems, s-xml.examples and s-xml.test, which you can then load if you want to try the examples or testing your installation.
