RE: asdf

I looked at the cliki page you suggested, and it does refer Ubuntu users to
the common-lisp-controller to get asdf.

I tried to add the ADSL to the standard config using the ./config command:

1: specify result file (currently "library:lisp.core")
 2: toggle loading of the Gray Stream library, currently enabled.
 3: toggle loading of the CLX X library, currently enabled.
 4: toggle loading of Motif and the graphical debugger, currently enabled.
 5: toggle loading the Hemlock editor, currently enabled.
 6: specify some site-specific file to load.
    Current files:
      "/usr/share/common-lisp/source/asdf/asdf.lisp"
 7: configure according to current options.
 8: abort the configuration process.

It completed fine and created new lisp.core. However, that did not seem to
work:

* (find-package "asdf")

NIL

Am I testing this wrong? Did I not set this up right? Please help.

Thanks,

Yarek
