Since most active CL implementations have provided ASDF2 as a built-in module, it doesn't need to depend on C-L-C for all CL packages any more. That's why I released dh-lisp 0.7.0 . For backward compatibility, I can't remove dh-lisp now. I have to wait until all CL packages drop the dependency of C-L-C. We should remove C-L-C before we remove dh-lisp. In conclusion, if you're creating a new CL package, no need to Build-Depend on dh-lisp. The CLID on alioth is really outdated. Do not learn it at this moment. We should rewrite it.
