So, I found some issues with the (load "load.lisp") routines called before the script ever gets control of them. I attempted to manually load all of the routines called from this routine, which IS required to make them work.
^^For example, this routine is called at the beginning of clfswm's routine...it's the lisp loader...it loads lisp. Sort of important for a lisp-based anything to be able to load lisp.
So I went to the directory that this file would be executed from and booted Clisp and loaded the routine manually....and....
...because it's not there. I looked.
So, I tried to simply circumvent this module to see if it was necessary:
...and it is.
I'm assuming these were both built from the Debian repos? If so, something is very very wrong. If we only want to get them to load for a live CD, then I may be able to fix the calls by reverse-engineering the build process, or using the git-repos for this one and stump.

Thank you.
Both wms are binaries coming from the debian repos, via apt.

Re: Gangbang Alpha Lisp-based WM, crash on load
What's missing is this package. It's like trying to build C in linux without "make". We may also have luck using quicklisp, which is an extension of the package. I won't know without just hacking at it until something works.
You may be able to get http://packages.debian.org/sid/cl-asdf to work without having to leave the Debian repos. If you have a working pre-ISO, it might be worth trying.

The DM guys are funny. Thanks for the info. I'll see what I can do for the respin of Gangbang (though it won't be in the next days)

Re: Gangbang Alpha Lisp-based WM, crash on load
As time permits, I'll make sure that is the only major error (as opposed to the only the first one.) I'll build them up and report back on exactly what it takes to get them running since it sounds like nobody is really in a huge hurry.

Absolutely no hurry. I don't even remember which they were :D (kidding)
Though it would be nice to see them in action finally. It's quite strange that nobody bothered to fix it upstream.
