Hi!

Recently I asked here about my problems when I tried to compile SBCL
in my iMac with Snow Leopard. Later I asked directly to the package
mainteiner, Leigh Smith, and here is his answer:


"I've uploaded versions of the info and patch files required to build
SBCL v1.0.29 on MacOS 10.6.2. These were not written by me, they were
contributed by Andy Kitchen.

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2892616&group_id=17203&atid=414256

Download the sbcl-i386_1.0.29.info and sbcl_1.0.29.patch files, copy
them into sw/fink/10.6/local/main/finkinfo/ and run:

fink index
fink list sbcl

which should show that SBCL 1.0.29 is available for update.

SBCL v1.0.32 is able to build on 10.5 but fails on 10.6 in building as
64 bit. There is yet to be a solution developed to build 1.0.32 on
10.6.X."


Notice that if you want to use this patch you will need to rename the
file sbcl_1.0.29.patch to sbcl.path.

In the same thread Alenxander Hansen sent this reply to Leigh Smith:

"You're going to need to rename the files, if they actually have
underscores in them, because dpkg treats underscores as special.  Our
standard is to use a hyphen (-) instead.

My inclination, however, is not to update anything for Intel beyond
1.0.29 until upstream comes up with a fix, since having an earlier
version on 10.5 than 10.6 breaks the upgrade path.  PowerPC is another
matter, though if I had my druthers, I'd prefer not to have to have
separate maxima packages for the two architectures; but since there's no
upgrade path issue I'd be willing to bend on that."
