Hello,

I am trying to install lift on sbcl 1.0.50 on linux. I get a bunch of
error messages, and the compilation fails, either with quickload, or
the version I downloaded from github. The error messages appear to be
the same either way.

Here are the messages:

..............

If I just accept every time, I get the following summary:

; compilation unit finished

; LIFT::ACCUMULATE-PROBLEM LIFT:MAKE-TEST-
RESULT LIFT::PRINT-TEST-PROBLEM LIFT:TESTSUITE-LOG-DATA LIFT::WITH-
PROFILE-REPORT-FN
; Undefined variable:
; LIFT::*PROFILE-STYLE*
; caught 7 ERROR conditions

("lift")

Any idea whether the problem is with sbcl or with lift (or with
something else)?

Thank you in advance for your help,

Gerhard

This looks like a version installed with asdf-install, which is possibly
old and incompatible. Try removing ~/.sbcl/site/lift/ and see if it
helps.
