I looked at the cliki page you suggested, and it does refer Ubuntu users to
the common-lisp-controller to get asdf.
I tried to add the ADSL to the standard config using the ./config command:
1: specify result file (currently "library:lisp.core")
2: toggle loading of the Gray Stream library, currently enabled.
3: toggle loading of the CLX X library, currently enabled.
4: toggle loading of Motif and the graphical debugger, currently enabled.
5: toggle loading the Hemlock editor, currently enabled.
6: specify some site-specific file to load.
Current files:
"/usr/share/common-lisp/source/asdf/asdf.lisp"
7: configure according to current options.
8: abort the configuration process.
It completed fine and created new lisp.core. However, that did not seem to
work:
* (find-package "asdf")
NIL
Am I testing this wrong? Did I not set this up right? Please help.
Thanks,
Yarek
