And the question I've been working on is: why is sbcl not autobuilding. I've been uploading new versions trying to fix autobuilding. The main problem seems to be that a build-dependency [common-lisp-controller] is reported to already be installed by the autobuilder, but SBCL's postinst is failing to find the scripts that should be installed with common-lisp-controller. For example, from http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=sbcl&ver=0.8.2.12-3&arch=sparc&stamp=1059791838&file=log&as=raw [...] Build-Depends: debhelper (>> 4.1.16), sbcl, docbook-dsssl, common-lisp-controller (>= 3.56) Checking for already installed source dependencies... debhelper: missing sbcl: missing docbook-dsssl: missing common-lisp-controller: already installed (in sufficient version 3.71 >= 3.56) [...] Setting up sbcl (0.8.1-1) ... /var/lib/dpkg/info/sbcl.postinst: line 36: clc-autobuild-impl: command not found So while the autobuilder thinks that common-lisp-controller is already installed, it is not truly installed. I'm working on uploading binary versions of sbcl to work around the autobuilder problem. -- Kevin Rosenberg [EMAIL PROTECTED]
