Hi,

Some time ago when Pierre Neidhardt tried to update SBCL to 2.1.7, some
packages failed to compile (because of changes in the internals of SBCL
I think). See commits b07581d6e24bf5fa4676bcebaba75315bbbb01e6 and
7c6ace67bb8ef421965e3f1cc1a02caf54c813f5.

Did you try building all the sbcl-* packages with SBCL 2.1.8 to check if
everything works fine?
If some packages are failing, we will have to update them as well
(upstreams probably have commits or PRs to fix compatibility with newer
SBCL versions).

I built all sbcl-* packages, I used this snippet to build them; let me know if there is a better way.

./pre-inst-env guix build $(./pre-inst-env guix search "^name: sbcl-" | awk '{ print $2 }' | tr '\n' ' ')

sbcl-burgled-batteries3 fails to build. It also fails on sbcl 2.1.6. Perhaps people are not really using the sbcl version of this package and just using the ecl version as it builds fine. I'm not sure how the build system works for cl- packages, but apparently it uses sbcl too.

Same story with sbcl-png.

These are the only two offenders; all other packages built fine.

I knotice that sbcl 2.1.9 came out, so these patches are to go straight to 2.1.9. I needed to update sbcl-esrap with no further problems. Same issues with sbcl-burgled-batteries3 and sbcl-png though for sbcl-png, I noticed a github pull request (https://github.com/ljosa/cl-png/pull/6) with a fix.

Patches pushed as 9bf9dd79ef907a7faab012f1c60c09e0819e179f and
following. Thanks.

I added patches to fix sbcl-png and sbcl-burgled-batteries3, and I check
that everything depending on SBCL builds fine with:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
./pre-inst-env guix build $(./pre-inst-env guix refresh -l sbcl | cut -d ':' -f 2-)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
