13:09:14ebrascawith sudo I can compile quicklisp inside ecl.
13:11:13pjbif you play with sudo, you may have created files, notably in ~/.cache/common-lisp owned by root that you cannot modify anymore under the normal user account, and this can break things.
13:31:20ebrascaI have not managed to compile quicklisp in ecl.
13:31:27pjbWhen you have a stack overflow, it's usually because there's a recursive loop. So the backtrace will be periodic, until it's not periodic anymore, when the recursive loop started.
13:31:42pjbdebugging is the same in all the programming languages (but perhaps prolog).
13:32:27ebrascaBut how it can fail with quicklisp ...
13:34:40pjbquicklisp may try to update asdf when the current one is an older version. This is a very delicate operation. There may be a bug.
