Quicklisp can't find package Alexandria-2

Open dmenager opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

I'm trying to install lisp-stat on my machine using quicklisp. I'm running Ubuntu 22.04. The install fails shortly after getting started with error:

No package named "ALEXANDRIA-2" Prior to that, I updated quicklisp by calling (ql:update-dist "quicklisp") and I uninstalled and reinstalled Alexandria. I'm running SBCL 2.4.0.

When I run (ql:quickload :lisp-stat), I receive the following stack trace:

   No package named "ALEXANDRIA-2"

How did you install alexandria? This is included in quicklisp and you shouldn't need to install it.

Symbolics avatar Oct 22 '24 01:10 Symbolics

Yes, so I just did (ql:quickload :alexandria) and it worked. Could the issue be that lisp-stat, specifically num-utils, is trying to call alexandria functions before loading the system? It seems that the namespace is missing

Could the issue be that lisp-stat, specifically num-utils, is trying to call alexandria functions before loading the system? It seems that the namespace is missing

It is missing and we have to figure out why. The num-utils system has alexandria as a dependency, so it will be loaded before any of the lisp code. In theory, this missing package can't happen if all the systems are up to date.

What I find odd is that it fails to find the package even after you manually load alexandria. This makes me think there must be something in the configuration or environment that's off.

Also, how did you install alexandria? It comes with quicklisp. Try deleting your installed version and use the one from quicklisp.

Symbolics avatar Oct 24 '24 02:10 Symbolics

The problem was caused by another system I had installed in my quicklisp/local-projects directory that came with its own version of alexandria. It turns out that quicklisp was loading this version of alexandria, which did not provide the proper namespaces. So, removing this system out of the local-projects directory enabled quicklisp to load the correct version.
