Hello,

I have recently switched to Debian Squeeze (a testing distro) and when I
start slime from emacs23 I get the attached debugger message. Does anyone
know how to handle this?

I found a (one year old) bug report on Debian about that problem and it
was said to only occur with sbcl. So I installed cmucl, too, but now I
don't know where the Debian sets the inferior-lisp-program path. Putting

(setq inferior-lisp-program "/usr/bin/cmucl")

into .emacs has no effect. .emacs, however, is loaded.

Help is appreciated. Switching to another distro is not an option.
(Info: I am also using packages from Lenny as Squeeze's package list
seems to be unfinished yet.)

Norbert

What is the value of inferior-lisp-program (C-h v
inferior-lisp-program) right before you do M-x slime?

Seems like it's sbcl.

Ist says: Its value is "/usr/bin/cmucl"
But when I type M-x slime the error occurs again.

Maybe doing "apt-get install common-lisp-controller" separately could
help?

No.
Even though common-lisp-controller was already installed I did
# apt-get install common-lisp-controller
$ emacs
[ M-X slime ]

same result. I browsed the source slime.el and found a comment
which more or less says inferior-lisp-program in no more used but
maintained for backward compatibility.

I just spotted slime-default-lisp and
(setq slime-default-lisp "cmucl")
in .emacs helped.

Thank you for helping. The issue with sbcl, though, remains open.

Norbert

P.S. In fact I wrote:
(setq inferior-lisp-program "/usr/bin/cmucl") ; my Lisp system ...
(setq slime-default-lisp "cmucl") ; ... I mean it!
