Working on the Debian package for Hunchentoot, if I'm correct I found that while Hunchentoot depends on FLEXI-STREAMS, this dependency is present in the packages.lisp file but not in the ASDF one.

A system dependency cannot be expressed in a package declaration. http://weitz.de/packages.html

This dependency, however, is implicitly satisfied in all CLs but LispWorks: in fact, CL+SSL (required unless on LispWorks) depends on FLEXI-STREAMS. From a quick view, I guess that if you want to use Hunchentoot without SSL support this will miss the FLEXI-STREAMS dependency as well.

It won't. Hunchentoot depends on Chunga which in turn depends on FLEXI-STREAMS. Thanks, Edi.
