can you please try the r1 and r2 versions and provide your emerge --info. RESOLVED WONTFIX. This package is masked for many months. We may make an attempt to revive it, but not in the near future. You're free to reopen if you want. But as Marijn says: # Marijn Schouten <hkBst at gentoo dot org> (29 Jul 2009) # Masked for increasingly many problems. Upstream is flaky and hasn't released since 2005. # Maxima is the only consumer and can be built with sbcl or clisp. # Hopefully upstream will do a release that we can add to revive this package. dev-lisp/gcl |
Linking new gcl image using steps given below fails. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Crate a file called link_cmd3.lisp containing the following: --------------------<cut here>----------------- (compiler::link nil "prelisp" (format nil "(progn (let ((*load-path* (cons ~S *load-path*)) (si::*load-types* ~S)) (compiler::emit-fn t)) (when (fboundp (quote si::sgc-on)) (si::sgc-on t)) (setq compiler::*default-system-p* t))" si::*system-directory* (quote (list ".lsp"))) "-lutil") ---------------------<cut here>----------------- 2. Execute: cat link_cmd3.lisp | gcl 3.

"prelisp" > Expected Results: gcl should build a new executable image called "prelisp". Building image works on the same machine using gcl build from sources fetched using the following command: svn co https://axiom.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/axiom/branches/build-improvements/gcl gcl It also works using gcl-2.6.7 in different distributions. The command above is a simplified version of the first step of build of Axiom computer algebra system. Note that older Axiom versions used to include copy of gcl sources and have build their own gcl. The problem surfaced because developement versions of Axiom try to use installed copy of gcl.
