The GSLL-SBCL-OpenBSD configuration requires some effort. So far, I've modified these files to include the OpenBSD-5.3 library names: quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/cffi_0.11.2/libffi/init.lisp - (:unix (:or "libffi.so.6" "libffi32.so.6" "libffi.so.5" "libffi32.so.5")) + (:unix (:or "libffi.so.0.0" "libffi.so.6" "libffi32.so.6" "libffi.so.5" "libffi32.so.5")) quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/cl+ssl-20130420-git/reload.lisp - (:openbsd (:or "libcrypto.so.21.0" + (:openbsd (:or "libcrypto.so.22.0" I set some environment variables: export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include:/usr/local/include export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib There were some pthread problems: ; Loading "gsll" sbcl:/usr/local/lib/libffi.so.6.1: undefined symbol 'pthread_mutex_unlock' sbcl:/usr/local/lib/libffi.so.6.1: undefined symbol 'pthread_mutex_lock' sbcl:/usr/local/lib/libffi.so.6.1: undefined symbol 'pthread_mutex_init' I'm working on a better build of SBCL; for now, this fixes pthread: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libpthread.so.17.0 sbcl --load quicklisp.lisp At the moment, GSLL stops at antik with this message: (load "/home/hanzer/quicklisp/setup.lisp") (ql:quickload "antik") [package antik]................................... [package grid].....; ; caught ERROR: ; READ error during COMPILE-FILE: ; ; :ASCII stream decoding error on ; #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM ; for "file /home/hanzer/quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/antik-20130720-git/init/generic.lisp" ; {45302089}>: ; ; the octet sequence #(194) cannot be decoded. ; ; (in form starting at line: 192, column: 18, file-position: 6849) The game is afoot.

Hi,

I've encountered some problems while having a look at GSLL (well, attempting to have a look at GSLL anyway). I can't seem to get started on an OpenBSD machine or a Xubuntu Linux machine. Any ideas about what the problem may be?

This looks like you don't have libfffi OS package installed. I'm not familiar with OpenBSD, so you'll have to figure out what it's called, but it should be the "development" package if they make a distinction, i.e., the one with the .h files as well as the library (.so). But in fact it looks like you don't have either now.

Type HELP for debugger help, or (SB-EXT:QUIT) to exit from SBCL.

This is weird. *built-in-float-types* is defined in src/types.lisp, line 113; you can check for yourself in the source code.
