Comment 8 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2018-05-28 19:13:12 UTC
Looks like it doesn't work with the cl-lib installed by app-emacs/slime-2.20.
Comment 9 Chema Alonso Josa (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2018-05-29 21:25:15 UTC
A solution could be to include a blocker on app-emacs/slime:

DEPEND="app-text/texi2html
    virtual/latex-base
    !!app-emacs/slime"

> A solution could be to include a blocker on app-emacs/slime:

IMHO blockers are rarely a good solution.

From the commentary in slime's lib/cl-lib.el:

;; This is a forward compatibility package, which provides (a subset of) the
;; features of the cl-lib package introduced in Emacs-24.3, for use on
;; previous emacsen.

;; Make sure this is installed *late* in your `load-path`, i.e. after Emacs's
;; built-in .../lisp/emacs-lisp directory, so that if/when you upgrade to
;; Emacs-24.3, the built-in version of the file will take precedence, otherwise
;; you could get into trouble (although we try to hack our way around the
;; problem in case it happens).

slime does this right, but it is countermanded by subdirs.el in the site-lisp directory, which adds all subdirectories recursively. Adding the following to slime's src_install() seems to fix the problem, though:

    touch "${ED}${SITELISP}/${PN}/lib/.nosearch"
