Type :H for Help. I think I know the reason for this. As I reproduced it yesterday but did not get enough time to fix it -- and I spent my whole evening chasing and fixing a stupid, mysterious kernel panic after a crash. The above problem seems to come from the fact that astr.clisp needs the boot compiler which was not built yet (or not found). But the build continued instead of failing. Later LISP found that the object file astr.o was missing. I think I fixed it. I just need to find the right "experimental directory" that has it :-( Sorry for that. -- Gaby _______________________________________________ Axiom-developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/axiom-developer
