Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

1.) Move your .emacs file to .orig.emacs
2.) Reinstall the slime package.
3.) Open up Emacs and run slime.

Slime will respond with an error message indicating that a lisp program
is not properly specified.  Manually fixing this is easy, just create a
.emacs file that contains (setq inferior-lisp-program "/usr/bin/sbcl").
However, I think it would be reasonable to make it so the package takes
care of this for the user.  A .emacs file with the above line should
automatically be created if the user doesn't already have a .emacs file.

** Affects: slime (Ubuntu)
