Hi, I'm writing a cl-mechanize script to scrape a website. One of the dependency issues is closure-html, which depends on NETLIB.
I'm using Quicklisp http://www.quicklisp.org/ to load closure-html, but I think closure-html expects to load its own dependencies from NETLIBhttp://www.netlib.org/, which is not currently available to Quicklisp.
Could closure-html have a fork which finds its dependencies with Quicklisp?
Trace:
(ql:quickload "cl-mechanize")

closure-html does not to my knowledge depend on anything called netlib. Gilbert probably used that name for one of his portability packages a long time ago, but the code in question is commented out using #+nil.
Is that possible that your *features* contain :nil?
