I have submitted bug reports, and provided descriptions of my setup (I think, actually, more than once). Have you entered them in the test suite for ASDF? (Do you have a test suite for ASDF?) I find it hard to believe they don't show up on your side if you continue testing that setup. (The bugs occur in SBCL, Clozure and LispWorks, for example…) Pascal -- Pascal Costanza The views expressed in this email are my own, and not those of my employer. _______________________________________________ asdf-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/asdf-devel
