Re: Help Packaging Incudine (Common Lisp)

["Théo Tyburn" <theo.tyburn@posteo.net>]

For some weird reasons I manage to compile this reluctant file in an
interactive session by accepting the error in the debugger and retrying
compilation later on when the compiled file is required.

Not sure in what retrying a compilation on the interactive debugger is
different from compiling normally. But I need to understand why the
retrying of compilation does in order to replicate it without the need
of an interactive session.

Here are the logs:
This is the first error where where I accept:

Then comes the second error where I retry compilation:

Tada. Any idea how I could achieve this without an interactive session ?
