Cannot install quicklisp-slime-helper under clisp on Windows 7 #12

Open ksvanhorn opened 11 years ago

ksvanhorn commented 11 years ago

The following sequence of forms in clisp lead to an error at the end:

(load ) (quicklisp-quickstart-install) (ql:add-to-init-file) (ql:quickload "quicklisp-slime-helper")

The last form dies with an error:

;; Compiling file /home/kevinv/quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/slime-20121223-cvs/contrib/swank-asdf.lisp ... ;; ;; Error while compiling /home/kevinv/quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/slime-20121223-cvs/contrib/swank-asdf.lisp: ;; OPEN: File #P"/cygdrive/c/Temp/asdf.lisp" does not exist ;; ;; Aborting.

/cygdrive/c/Temp is the current working directory. When I start up clisp from a different directory, it still looks for asdf.lisp in whatever the current working directory is. I am using clisp 2.48 running under Cygwin.

What you see as "(load )" in the issue description is supposed to be (load path-to-quicklisp). That is, the initial condition is that quicklisp has not been installed.
