When the lisp's current directory is not writable, GET-DESCRIPTOR-FOR can fail.

If OBJECT is a stream, then the function tries to create a temporary file in the current directory. It should create the temporary file in /tmp (or whatever).

given version "Version 1.3-RC1-r11719M (DarwinPPC32)", given a local asdf package in a unix file with pathname such as

/Development/Downloads/bordeaux-threads_latest.tar.gz

asdf-install fails to install the package. the step which attempts to extract the tar table-of-contents fails, as the filename escape character, #
, appears in the command string. a patch to installer.lisp#tar-arguments (​http://trac.clozure.com/openmcl/browser/trunk/source/tools/asdf-install/installer.lisp?rev=11304#L291) to delete the escape character, which allows the install to succeed, demonstrates the problem.

Hi,

See patch below, which follows the Debian DEP3 standard.

I think the information in the patch description is mostly sufficient to explain the issue. It is possible this build issue is specific to Debian and not a problem elsewhere. It is also possible that this additional flag will break builds on other platforms. I cannot test either of these possibilities easily. In any case, I'm forwarding this patch upstream, as per Debian guidelines. If this patch is included upstream, then it will not need to be included in Debian.

Please also note that the x86-headers64 used was from

​svn://svn.clozure.com/openmcl/release/1.8/x86-headers64

The corresponding web link is

​http://svn.clozure.com/publicsvn/openmcl/release/1.8/x86-headers64/gnustep/C/populate.sh

BTW, I notice that the interface databases are only built for the gnustep headers on amd64. I tried copying them to i386 and building the databases on i386, but got a segfault.

Description: Fix error when running x86-headers64/gnustep/C/populate.sh
Without this patch, when running x86-headers64/gnustep/C/populate.sh,
the following error occurs.
.
