Hi Tamas,
This is what I usually do:
I keep a copy of the git SBCL repository in my machine and compile from
scratch.
$ git clone git://git.boinkor.net/sbcl
This will create a "sbcl" directory (I'll call this "sbcl-1")
You can then compile SBCL the "raw" way.
Or, if you want a .deb package, *maybe* this will work on Ubuntu
(works for me in Debian):
- Get the Debian sources (from
http://packages.debian.org/source/sid/sbcl)
. sbcl_1.0.31.0-1.dsc
. sbcl_1.0.31.0.orig.tar.gz
. sbcl_1.0.31.0-1.diff.gz
- Unpack the sources in a separate directory:
. dpkg-source -x sbcl_1.0.31.0-1.dsc
This will create another directory ("sbcl_...")
- Copy the "debian" subdirectory into "sbcl-1" (created before)
- Go to "sbcl-1"
. Look at version.lisp-expr and check the version number
. Type "dch" and fix the version number in the Debian changelog
- Run "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot"
- When it stops, there will be three deb files in the parent directory,
one for sbcl, one for sbcl-source and one for sbcl-doc
Periodically go to "sbcl-1" and run "git pull" to get updates (but
you may want to install just released versions -- although I never
hit a bug running all daily updates)
Hope that helps.
