Quicklisp loads library but is nowhere to be found in *features*

Today I installed cl-html-parse with Quicklisp but when I load it the library is nowhere to be found in the features list, what's going on? I thought that it may have been a bug with Quicklisp so I did a (asdf-install:install :cl-html-parse) and compiled everything, once again nothing is to be found in features.

(require :cl-html-parse) returns NIL (ql:quickload "cl-html-parse") returns: " To load "cl-html-parse": Load 1 ASDF system: cl-html-parse ; Loading "cl-html-parse"

("cl-html-parse")"

I have installed other libraries with Quicklisp before, everything worked fine then. I've tried updating the client and I was already on the latest version.

I'm running Ubuntu 11.04, my CL implementation is SBCL 1.0.49.

EDIT: TL;DR: The problem is that I have a library which supposedly gets loaded into Common Lisp but is unusable and I want to use it.

Solution

  • cl-html-parse doesn't push any symbols onto features that I can see. I did a quick search of the cl-html-parse source files and don't see the word "feature" in any of them.
