Hi,
I finally found a Common Lisp implementation, which compiles on my
embedded system (Arietta G25 www.acmesystems.it/arietta). Its CPU has
no vfp.
Next I wanted cl-ppcre to be installed and did a
emerge dev-lisp/cl-ppcre -va
and this was printed:
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild N *] dev-lisp/asdf-3.1.4:0/3.1.4::gentoo USE="-doc" 0 KiB
[ebuild N *] dev-lisp/uiop-3.1.4::gentoo 0 KiB

[ebuild N *] virtual/commonlisp-0::gentoo 0 KiB
[ebuild N *] dev-lisp/cl-ppcre-1.2.16::gentoo 0 KiB
Total: 6 packages (6 new), Size of downloads: 0 KiB
Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No]
...and sbcl (which I would prefer over GCL) does not compile on the
embedded system due to the lack of vfp.
>From the homepage of cl-ppcre:
CL-PPCRE is a portable regular expression library for Common Lisp which has the
following features:
It is compatible with Perl.
It is pretty fast.
>>> It is portable between ANSI-compliant Common Lisp implementations. <!!!>
It is thread-safe.
In addition to specifying regular expressions as strings like in Perl you
can also use S-expressions.
It comes with a BSD-style license so you can basically do with it whatever
you want.
Now I scratching my head...why is sbcl needed, if gcl is already
installed?
Is it possible to use gcl instead of sbcl nonetheless? How?
Thank you very much in advance for any help!
Best regards,
Meino
