Thanks, that worked. However, I already had done the standard uninstall/remove for both through "Ubuntu Software Center". Maybe have a note of warning on your webpage about Ubuntu's woes. . . .

Simple uninstall doesn't remove configuration files, purge does a complete uninstall, I always use purge to uninstall things on Debian or Ubuntu. I've never used this "Ubuntu Software Center", but I imagine that in the usual Ubuntu fashion it's tailored to brain-dead people, so it probably doesn't have an option to fully purge a package. I just use aptitude for my package management. -- -- With best regards, Stas.

(ql:quickload :quicklisp-slime-helper) and you're done.

That's right, but stray debian packages will affect quicklisp as well. -- -- With best regards, Stas. _______________________________________________ slime-devel site list slime-devel <at> common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/mailman/listinfo/slime-devel
