Hello Cygwin! I have a question about the clisp package. I seem to have run into the same issue as this poor fellow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60352371/how-to-run-swank-of-slime-with-clisp-without-dump After further debugging, searching, and more debugging, I seem to have found the issue. According to this HOWTO: http://pchristensen.com/blog/articles/installing-clisp-emacs-and-slime-on-windows-xp/ CLISP needs to be started with the full linking-set. When I tried that I found there was no full linking-set: $ clisp -K full clisp: /usr/lib/clisp-2.49+/full/lisp.exe: No such file or directory $ ls /usr/lib/clisp-2.49+/ base berkeley-db build-aux clx data dirkey dynmod gdbm linkkit pcre rawsockI looked at cygwin.com/packages/ for the answer but I did not see one with the "full" linking-set. Are there plans to include? Could there be? Thanks in advance. I really appreciate all your work on Cygwin!
I'm Cygwin's clisp maintainer, but I haven't thought about clisp for a while because upstream clisp development has been inactive for a couple years. The last significant work I did on it was to get dynamic loading of modules working on Cygwin.
I have a vague recollection that I decided there was no longer a need for the full linking set once dynamic loading was working. But I'll try to refresh my memory and see if I can provide it. It will probably be a few days until I get to this.
