[cl-debian] Bug#414682: cl-swank: trying to connect to new SBCL from Emacs throws a CL error

So I'm guessing your cl-swank and slime packages are out of sync and the backwards compatibility of slime leaves something to be desired.
I'm not sure how this can be, though. From the output of [dpkg -l cl-swank slime]: ii cl-swank 20061201-2 Superior LISP Interaction Mode for Emacs (Lisp-side server) ii slime 20061201-2 Superior LISP Interaction Mode for Emacs I suppose it's possible some byte-compiled-files have gotten out of date somewhere or something, but I thought the Debian Lisp infrastructure was supposed to handle all that automatically. Other than that, AFAICT these are the same version. Unless there's another package that also needs to be synced that I'm missing... ?

Hmm. Could you try removing and reinstalling the slime package?

It should.

None that I know, sometimes the emacs version is important, but not in this case. Groetjes, Peter -- signature -at- pvaneynd.mailworks.org http://www.livejournal.com/users/pvaneynd/ "God, root, what is difference?" Pitr | "God is more forgiving." Dave Aronson|

Removed and reinstalled slime, then cl-swank, then both at once. No go, alas. It can't be Debian package cache corruption or something, can it? Can anyone else confirm that 20061201-2 works for them?
