clbuild: weblocks missing dependency fare-matcher
Eric Lavigne
having difficulty with installation.
I followed the weblocks/clbuild installation instructions at
http://weblocks.viridian-project.de/installation
I installed sbcl through Ubuntu's package manager, and therefore have
version 1.0.11.
I ran into a problem at step 5: (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op 'weblocks-demo)
The error message says:
component :fare-matcher not found,
required by #<system "weblocks" {c792021}>
[Condition of type asdf:missing-dependency]
I checked the contents of clbuild/source. There are over 50 libraries,
including weblocks, various weblocks dependencies, and the
"fare-matcher" library which is supposedly missing. I don't understand
why asdf is finding some of these libraries but not finding
fare-matcher.

Check the directories listed in asdf:*central-registry* (evalling if
needed) for the file fare-matcher.asd or a link thereto.

The *central-registry* contains only one directory: clbuild/systems.
That directory contains many XXX.asd symbolic links, but no
fare-matcher.asd.
I checked the contents of clbuild/source/fare-matcher, expecting to
find a fare-matcher.asd and make the symbolic link manually. However,
the folder was almost empty, containing only the folder _darcs.
I tried running "clbuild install weblocks" again, watching more
closely for intermediate errors. The following excerpt shows a problem
with fetching fare-matcher as well as fare-utils. This is in the
middle of the output for "clbuild install weblocks" and it just
continues installing other libraries as though nothing had gone wrong.

Okay, I see what happened now. The fare.tunes.org website is down, so
I was unable to download either fare-matcher or fare-utils which are
hosted on that website. May I have copies of these two libraries?

Browse around there for anything else you are missing; it is all
clonable over static HTTP protocols.

Thanks. That solves the missing libraries problem.
The next problem looks entirely unrelated:
Lock on package sb-alient violated when interning *shared-objects-lock*.
[Condition of type package-locked-error]

Restarts:
Ignore the package lock
Ignore all package locks
Unlock the package

Continue, treating <asdf:compile-op nil> on
<asdf:cl-source-file "cffi-sbcl"> as successful.

A long backtrace shows that it was working on
clbuild/source/cffi/src/cffi-sbcl.lisp. I'm guessing that I need to
upgrade to the latest SBCL, but I'll start with the manual at
http://www.sbcl.org/manual/Package-Locks.html

Yes, I think so too.

Success :-)
Thank you Stephen and Leslie for your help. Weblocks looks like a fun
tool, and I'm looking forward to learning more about it.
