ql:quickload freezes on "loading" stage with cl-sdl2

[0xze...@gmail.com]

First encountered this issue with the sketch library, and again with cl-sdl2.

I'm running SBCL 1.4.7 on Ubuntu.

Running "(ql:quickload "sdl2")"  gives me the following:

* (ql:quickload "sdl2")           

To load "sdl2":

  Load 1 ASDF system:

    sdl2

; Loading "sdl2"

....

....and it hangs there. Nothing more happens - but I can Ctrl-C out of it. I've got libSDL2 and all dependencies installed via apt-get, so that shouldn't be an issue.

Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong - or how I could possibly debug this?

okay, so I tried all sorts of things to no avail, only for it to magically resolve itself after being left running for 10 minutes. at least it's working!
