Bug#769309: ecl: This version does not compile backend.lisp file of cl-swank package with Emacs24 in amd64.

[José Roberto B. de A. Monteiro]

Package: ecl
Version: 13.5.1+dfsg2-4.2
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

Calling slime from Emacs 24 is given a compilation error due to innapropriate
library path include when calling gcc to generate backend.fas from
backend.lisp. The calling function where:

(RUN-PROGRAM "gcc" '("-o" ".cache/common-lisp/ecl-13.5.1-unknown-
linux-x64/usr/share/common-lisp/source/slime/swank/swank/fasl/ecl-13.5.1-linux-
x86_64/backend.fas" "/home/jrm/.cache/common-lisp/ecl-13.5.1-unknown-
linux-x64/usr/share/common-lisp/source/slime/swank/swank/fasl/ecl-13.5.1-linux-
x86_64/backend.o" "-Wl,--rpath,/usr/lib/" "-shared" "-lecl" "-lgmp" "-lgc"
"-lffi" "-lpthread" "-ldl" "-lm"))

The line above has "-L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu" missing. So, the correct
compile command would be:

(RUN-PROGRAM "gcc" '("-o" ".cache/common-lisp/ecl-13.5.1-unknown-
linux-x64/usr/share/common-lisp/source/slime/swank/swank/fasl/ecl-13.5.1-linux-
x86_64/backend.fas" "-L/usr/lib/" "-L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu"
"/home/jrm/.cache/common-lisp/ecl-13.5.1-unknown-linux-x64/usr/share/common-
lisp/source/slime/swank/swank/fasl/ecl-13.5.1-linux-x86_64/backend.o" "-Wl,--
rpath,/usr/lib/" "-shared" "-lecl" "-lgmp" "-lgc" "-lffi" "-lpthread" "-ldl"
"-lm"))

Running the command by hand, backend.fas is generated and slime works well in
Emacs24.

Regards,

J. Roberto
