Elephant: Component "ele-bdb" not found

[Nik]

Hi folks!

Sorry for posting this Elephant specific issue to this list.
Unfortunately, my original posting to the Elephant mailing list
was blocked.

Maybe somebody on this list had a similar problem in the past
and can help me to fix it.

I have installed Elephant (elephant-20111001-darcs)
via Quicklisp. Following the installation guide I have
compiled and installed Berkeley DB 4.5 from the source
and modified my-config.sexp in the root directory
of Elephant accordingly.

After loading "elephant" I have tried to open
a sample store and got the follwoing error:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
CL-USER> (ql:quickload :elephant)

I'm using Clozure CL 1.7-r14925M on Archlinux (64bit).
I have installed BerkeleyDB 4.5 in /usr/local/lisp/elephant/
BerkelyDB-4.5:

tar -xzf db-4.5.20.tar.gz; cd db-4.5.20/build_unix;
../dist/configure --prefix=/usr/local/lisp/elephant/BerkelyDB-4.5;
make; make install

Here is the content of my-config.sexp:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
;; ==============
;; Linux defaults
;; ==============
;;
#+(and (or sbcl allegro openmcl lispworks) (not (or mswindows windows

Any help is very much appreciated!

Nik

PS: I also tested it using SBCL 1.0.52 and got the same error!

I think it's a QL bug. They need to include ele-bdb.asd in their
Elephant system file.

You are right.

I have put an appropriate "ele-bdb.txt" file into systems directory
and added the line "elephant ele-bdb ele-bdb uffi elephant" to the
"systems.txt"
file. And voila, it works now!

Thank you!
