The problem seems to be that my sbcl binary, which I copied from from an x86 machine (because the one compiled on my AM64 did not support threads required by my web server) was not compatible with the 64- bit version of the gd library. I rebuilt sbcl as 64-bit, and cl-gd now works. Cheers, Andreas Kaempf On Mon, 11 Apr 2005 20:48:07 +0100 Andreas Kaempf <andreas.kaempf@soundience.com> wrote:

I have been trying to get cl-gd working under sbcl on Gentoo Linux running on a dual Opteron system. When I try to compile or require cl- gd within sbcl, I keep getting this message:

Could not open shared object #S(SB-ALIEN::SHARED-OBJECT :FILE "/usr/lib/cl-gd-glue.so" :SAP NIL): /usr/lib/cl-gd-glue.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The file /usr/lib/cl-gd-glue.so does indeed exist, and permissions are not the problem, since this happens as root.

I have tried rebuilding several times. It works fine on my AMD XP laptop, so perhaps it's a problem with uffi or cl-gd on AMD64 systems? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
