,--- You/Xuebin (Tue, 22 Apr 2008 01:50:02 +0800) ----* | | To whom may concern: | | I check port tree and know that this address is maintainer mailbox for sbcl | port. I've sent similar mail to cmucl maintainer but had no reply | yet.
If you look at the CMUCL version in ports, you will find it to be way old: 19c (which was probably the year 2003) -- i.e. the CMUCL "port" has not been maintained for quite a while. The FreeBSD distributions at CMUCL's site have been actively maintained and you will find both the 19e-pre2 and the 2008-04 snapshot there for all the latest FreeBSD versions (6.3, 7.0 and 8.0) there. | I've upgrade to freebsd 7.0 release for quite some times. However, I could | not run cmucl and sbcl binary from port package. And the attempts to build | from port tree were also failed. Prebuilt sbcl/cmucl core kept crashing | every time when building port sources. And clisp compiler complained lots of | undefined function names when building sbcl source. Right, you won't be able to build with old (pre 2007-12) CMUCLs on FreeBSD -- the issue was addressed in November 2007. | Weird, I saw freebsd site still provide binary port packages for cmucl and | sbcl both under 7.0-release and 7-stable directories. And there are also | many fb7.0 precompiled binaries at cmucl offical site for download. Things are kept current at the CMUCL site -- and that's the place to get the FreeBSD distributions at this time. -- Alex -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- /* * Between grand theft and a legal fee, there only stands a law degree. */ _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
