I have been trying to install GSLL for the past couple of days on Ubuntu and Debian, both running SBCL, and I keep encountering the same problem.
I install Quicklisp without any difficulty but when I attempt to install GSLL I get the output that I have included below.
It appears that the error is in static-vectors and the use of the component "CFFI-GROVEL-FILE." I'm not seeing where in the source files that I have the component defined anywhere, so I am at a loss as to what it does. I have included the output of (list-all-packages) at the very bottom in case I am missing something. I'm hoping that someone with a more in-depth understanding of the different components can help me out.
