Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: common-lisp-controller

Description:    Ubuntu 10.10
Release:        10.10

common-lisp-controller:
  Installed: 7.2
  Candidate: 7.2

What I expected to happen:
I expected my quicklisp to load without problems

What happened:
It breaks with the message

ASDF could not load sb-posix because Not an absolute pathname
#P"~/.clc/systems/".

debugger invoked on a SIMPLE-ERROR in thread #<THREAD "initial thread" RUNNING
                                               {1002C99EA1}>:
  Not an absolute pathname #P"~/.clc/systems/"


How to fix it:

The hardcoded path in 
/etc/common-lisp/source-registry.conf.d/02-common-lisp-controller-userdir.conf 
breaks cl-asdf for versions newer than 2.something. 
Just replacing 
 (:directory  #p"~/.clc/systems/")
with 
 (:directory  (:HOME ".clc/systems/"))
makes everything work nicely and newer versions of cl-asdf stop crashing
