Hi,
Am I the only one who has difficulties from doing package management
in CL? I'm wasting huge resources to deal with that and I'm looking
for a methodology to deal with it once and for all.
Currently on my machines live the following types of packages:
1. asdf-install-ed packages;
2. CVS (and similar) packages;
3. Packages installed using the OS package management;
4. Packages that I developed;
5. Packages that got shipped with other packages;
It's a hell of a job to deal with this without prior planning,
especially if one manages more than one machines.
I have plenty of issues. I update a package to the latest version to
find out that I had to update another package that had higher
priority. Installing new machine is a lot of work. Sometimes the
software works on one of the machines and not on the other. I also
have problems with old FASL files.
How do you deal with the problem? Is ASDF a norm these days? What
about common-lisp-controller - do you use it?
Thanks,
--
Kamen
