The advice on the wiki is a bit out of date. These days, nine out of ten lispers agree that neither asdf-install, common-lisp-controller, nor Debian/Ubuntu-packaged lisp implementations should be used by anyone, at any time, for any purpose.
Ummm, common-lisp-controller is the reason that I was able to build my mcclim packages for Fedora. It works _really_ well.
It easily enables Lisp source to be installed by root, with FASLs cached neatly, and allows multiple Common Lisp implementations to share the same source.
It's great.
