Package: slime Version: 1:20080223-1 Severity: grave I have found that the latest version of slime will not start up. I posted to the slime mailing list and got this response from Helmut Eller:
This seems to be Debian specific. The missing function UNIQUE-DIRECTORY-NAME is now called UNIQUE-DIR-NAME. Peter Van Eynde should probably set *FASL-DIRECTORY* instead of hard-coding the paths. This is what I get when trying to start slime: (progn (load "/usr/share/common-lisp/source/slime/swank-loader.lisp" :verbose t) (funcall (read-from-string "swank-loader:init")) (funcall (read-from-string "swank:start-server") "/tmp/slime.10300" :coding-system "iso-latin-1-unix")) This is SBCL 1.0.14.debian, an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp.
