I talked about this with Zach. It is a bug in ASDF:
#+clisp ;XXX not exactly *verbose-out*, I know (ext:run-shell-command command :output :terminal :wait t)
see http://common-lisp.net/project/asdf/asdf.lisp
Try commenting out one of the read-line forms in defun gsl-config: http://repo.or.cz/w/gsll.git/blob/6010bde348c55267e7746d5d5cd386288810723b:/... and see if that helps. If it does I'll put a conditional into the GSL code. Otherwise I don't think there's an easy fix to GSLL.

Hi,
Following the download instructions on the GSLL webpage (using quicklisp), I couldn't complete the installation. I provided the error, complete verbose output and and results of 'backtrace', which I've pasted again below. Apprently this is 'a general problem with how asdf:run-shell-command works on CLISP vs. how gsll expects it to work' (thanks Zach!), and it was suggested that I posted here. I'm new to lisp, so I don't really know where to start myself.
Does anyone have any ideas for how to make this work in clisp? Thanks! Alexander
