As specified by the ANSI spec, words in logical pathnames must consist of alphabetic characters, decimal digits, and the minus sign. Not allowed are characters such as underscore (#\_)

Yeah, CCL seems really weird. Like it preserves case in translate-logical-pathname also. Maybe just ask over in #ccl sometime. Maybe there is a reason for it.

In your clasp enviroment, which version of python do you have? I have errors in waf starting python 3.8
14:26:11
yitzi
On arch I have 3.9.1 ... but I haven't built for a while. What errors are you getting?
14:30:31
kpoeck
I have to switch back to python3.8 to reproduce the error. Happened with ./waf configure.

I'm working with bike's changes to the scraper to integrate them into clasp - that changes how we deal with clasp_gc.cc

https://github.com/clasp-developers/clasp/blob/main/src/main/clasp_gc.cc is 28 days old

Because I have a new one being generated in the 'scrape' branch and I'll backport that to the 'main' branch.

Is it allowed to preserve case when translating logical pathnames to physical pathnames?
14:54:39
yitzi
Downcasing in translate-logical-pathnames appears to be implementation dependent according to CLHS.

Keep in mind this was only a discussion about CLASP vs CCL. CLASP is just fine in its behavior.

drmeister: I am now using those ubunto clasp packages in my CLJ testing on GitHub actions to test PR, etc. Just thought you'd like to know.
