lisp-config.lisp is part of the common-lisp-controller package. Mine
looks like this:
(in-package :common-lisp-user)
;;; Please don't change this file. Automaticly generated by
common-lisp-controller package.
;;; Run dpkg-reconfigure common-lisp-controller as root to change the settings
#+(or cmu scl)
(setf system:*short-site-name* "Unknown"
system:*long-site-name* "Site name not initialized")
#+sbcl
(setf sb-sys:*short-site-name* "Unknown"
sb-sys:*long-site-name* "Site name not initialized")
(heh, I should probably set my site-name's at some point :)
I'm guessing that yours has "sloth" without quotes around it. You
should probably file a bug, but in the mean time, just add the quotes.
HTH,
