Bug#710730: cl-asdf: Stumpwm failing, cannot find asdf.lisp

Sun Jun 2 16:05:05 UTC 2013

I uploaded cl-asdf 3.0.1.3-1 to mentors, which improves backward
compatibility with previous asdf debian packages by including this
symlink. Can you upload it?

With it, I have no problem loading cl-ppcre from debian (after using
HOME=/tmp/home to make sure nothing in my home configuration overrides
the debian defaults). Does stumpwm properly depends on cl-ppcre?

The naturalistic fallacy: "if it's natural, it's good."
The anti-naturalistic fallacy: "if it's natural, it's bad."
The a-naturalistic fallacy: "nature has no relationship to good and bad."
