bug#46424: Use load-systems or load-systems*
Interesting. This reminds me of a puzzling issue I recently had while working on the Nyxt .asd: - (asdf:load-asd "/path/to/nyxt.asd") - (asdf:make :nyxt/quicklisp) The nyxt/quicklisp system would call ql:update-dist and then would fail, saying it cannot find "nyxt/quicklisp" (which it is running!) because ql:update-dist would lead ASDF to somehow forget about the .asd. Adding (asdf:load-asd "/path/to/nyxt.asd") right after ql:update-dist fixes it. I've reworked the whole thing different on Nyxt's master branch, so this is no longer an issue. Maybe there is a hint lurking in there... -- Pierre Neidhardt https://ambrevar.xyz/ signature.asc Description: PGP signature
bug#46424: Use load-systems or load-systems*
In the case of quri, it looks like the problem comes from the "(asdf:clear-system c)" call at the end of "quri-test.asd". When removing it, the build succeeds even without the custom 'asd-systems' argument in the Guix package definition. So it looks like the lazy loading of system definitions is working in asdf-build-system after all. I guess it's the default behaviour of 'load-asd'. However I don't know why this 'clear-system' call messes up the ASDF configuration in asdf-build-system, but it doesn't seem to cause problems in Quicklisp... signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Hi I've just checked source of ASDF and it looks like there is a native option to load multiple systems at once > --8<---cut here---start->8---> (defun load-systems* (systems &rest keys) "Loading multiple systems at once." (dolist (s systems) (apply 'load-system s keys))) (defun load-systems (&rest systems) "Loading multiple systems at once." (load-systems* systems)) --8<---cut here---end--->8--- https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/asdf/asdf/-/blob/master/operate.lisp#L155 -- … наш разум - превосходная объяснительная машина которая способна найти смысл почти в чем угодно, истолковать любой феномен, но совершенно не в состоянии принять мысль о непредсказуемости.
