Created attachment 68741 [details] new swank.asd
The problem I was having was actually upstream. However it would still be nice if slime-cvs did get a more up to date swank.asd. Sorry for the confusion.
I am in the process of preparing another app-emacs/slime snapshot
I just added app-emacs/slime-1.2.1.20051112 which is slime 1.2.1 plus CVS up to today. I will move its updated asdf file to slime-cvs shortly
thank you
I believe I forgot to close this. The swank.asd in slime-cvs matches that in slime-1.2.1.20060205.ebuild
