Two updates today: new client and July dist

There are two updates available for Quicklisp users today.

The first is a client update. The new client has a tiny but important fix with how it displays what changes will be made for a dist update. Before, lingering temporary files could interfere and it could give an alarming report that most projects were being removed. With the fix in place, the report now gives accurate information about which projects have been added, updated, and removed. To get the client update, use (ql:update-client) and restart your Lisp.

The second is the July Quicklisp dist update. Here's what you'll see when you update:

  Removed projects:
    blackthorn-engine-20110522-hg
    elephant-20110110-darcs

blackthorn-engine has been replaced with blackthorn-engine-3d, a new project by the same author. elephant has been removed because it hasn't worked on SBCL for several months now, and patches for the problem have been ignored. As far as I can tell, Elephant is effectively unmaintained.

The metadata from the June dist caused problems with installing f2cl and GBBopen. The July dist has been updated to fix all known problems. If you have any trouble installing any project, please let me know.

Enjoy!
