[Openmcl-devel] error loading quicklisp into CCL

[Bill St. Clair]

Matt uploaded an early version of the Clozure CL 1.11 app that still had
some ASDF state inside, causing the problem you’re seeing. I think he
uploaded the fixed version on Monday, 2/29, but the App Store still has the
2/28 version (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/clozure-cl/id489900618). Matt
is taking a short vacation, so I can’t ask him.

I believe that executing the following, before you load Quicklisp, will fix
it, but I won’t be able to actually test that until the App Store starts
working for me again (though I DID test it in Matt’s early release image,
before he submitetted it to Apple).

   (uiop/image:call-image-restore-hook)

You should probably do that in a way that won’t break in an image with no
ASDF present:

    (when (find-package :uiop/image)
      (funcall (find-symbol "CALL-IMAGE-RESTORE-HOOK" :uiop/image)))

Hopefully, the updated version, without that problem, will appear soon in
the App Store.
