I'm having trouble installing swank locally. I had it working by adding a symbolic link from /usr/local/src/slime/swank.asd to /usr/ local/asdf-install/site-systems/swank.asd, but that required write access to /usr/local/src/slime for temporary files. Is there a way to specify a different directory for those?
I then tried this:
(make-package :swank-loader) (defparameter swank-loader::*source-directory* "/home/pjm/slime/") (defparameter swank-loader::*fasl-directory* "/home/pjm/slime/") (load "/home/pjm/slime/swank-loader.lisp") (setq swank:*use-dedicated-output-stream* nil) (swank:create-server :port 4005 :dont-close t)
But it resulted in:
Error: Reader error on #<BASIC-FILE-CHARACTER-INPUT-STREAM ("/home/
pjm/ccl-init.lisp"/4 ISO-8859-1) #x300040F05A0D>, near position 714, within "etq swank:*use-dedic":
Reference to unknown package "SWANK".While executing: CCL::SIGNAL-READER-ERROR, in process listener(1).
Is there a way to install via asdf locally?
(Clozure CL 64-bit on CentOS, if that matters.)
Thanks,
Patrick
