been there... that's why my slime locally uses
asdf:apply-output-translations for a few years now.
slime used to be proudly ASDF free, but maybe that's something to
reconsider, at least with an optional support.
this is what i'm running with (which i don't recommend for inclusion
in this form):
(defun binary-pathname (src-pathname binary-dir)
"Return the pathname where SRC-PATHNAME's binary should be compiled."
+ (declare (ignore binary-dir))
+ #+asdf
+ (asdf:apply-output-translations src-pathname)
+ #-asdf
(let ((cfp (compile-file-pathname src-pathname)))
(merge-pathnames (make-pathname :name (pathname-name cfp)
:type (pathname-type cfp)))))
but if the maintainers are open for this direction, then i may look
into packaging up and testing a PR for integrating ASDF properly, and
optionally.
and not forgetting this either: https://github.com/slime/slime/pull/282/
currently swank can break in funny ways when used together with ASDF.
e.g. :depends-on (:swank) can be a source of great bafflement when it
reloads swank and undo's half of the contrib's, leaving some stuff
crippled. and the .slime/fasl dir can also bite you when you thought
you have deleted the fasl's, except one outlier.
