UIOP does not recognize local-nicknames keyword - package

I'm attempting to make a Lisp package with uiop/package:define-package. I'm using SBCL, and have confirmed that package-local nicknaming ought to be supported:
* *features*
(:QUICKLISP :ASDF3.3 :ASDF3.2 :ASDF3.1 :ASDF3 :ASDF2 :ASDF :OS-UNIX
:NON-BASE-CHARS-EXIST-P :ASDF-UNICODE :X86-64 :GENCGC :64-BIT :ANSI-CL
:COMMON-LISP :ELF :IEEE-FLOATING-POINT :LINUX :LITTLE-ENDIAN
:PACKAGE-LOCAL-NICKNAMES :SB-CORE-COMPRESSION :SB-LDB :SB-PACKAGE-LOCKS
:SB-THREAD :SB-UNICODE :SBCL :UNIX)
* (uiop:featurep :package-local-nicknames)
T
Nevertheless, when I try to define a package that has local nicknames, it doesn't work:
(uiop/package:define-package #:foo
(:use #:cl)
(:local-nicknames (#:b #:binparse)))
debugger invoked on a SIMPLE-ERROR in thread
#<THREAD "main thread" RUNNING {1001878103}>:
unrecognized define-package keyword :LOCAL-NICKNAMES
Type HELP for debugger help, or (SB-EXT:EXIT) to exit from SBCL.
restarts (invokable by number or by possibly-abbreviated name):
0: [ABORT] Exit debugger, returning to top level.
(UIOP/PACKAGE:PARSE-DEFINE-PACKAGE-FORM #:FOO ((:USE #:CL) (:LOCAL-NICKNAMES (#:B #:BINPARSE))))
source: (ERROR "unrecognized define-package keyword ~S" KW)
0] 0
(binparse being another package I've made, which worked fine, but which did not happen to use local nicknaming).
What I've found of the uiop/package source seems to indicate that this shouldn't happen? Going by that, it should either work, or have a specific error message indicating the non-supported-ness of local nicknames (if somehow uiop:featurep is inaccurate or changing), but it shouldn't give a generic unknown-keyword error. At this point I'm not sure what I could be getting wrong.

The version of asdf that's included in releases of sbcl is based on asdf version 3.3.1 (November 2017), except bundled into only two (larger) lisp files (one for asdf and one for uiop) rather than breaking them up by purpose as is done in official releases of asdf. asdf added #+sbcl support for package-local nicknames in 3.3.3.2 (August 2019), and switched to the more general #+package-local-nicknames in 3.3.4.1 (April 2020) (the latest release version is 3.3.4, though, so that wouldn't be in yet anyway). So it's "just" a delay in pulling from upstream. Following the instructions on upgrading ASDF did the trick – extract the latest release tarball into ~/common-lisp/asdf and run (load (compile-file #P"~/common-lisp/asdf/build/asdf.lisp")) once, and future shells will use the updated version.

How to abort a macports portfile on an error condition?

I working on a version bump on the cc65 and encountered a problem with the linuxdoc-tools. Since I can't fix the linuxdoc-tools and there is a simple workaround possible I decided to add an if statement to inform the user together with the workaround:
if {! [file exists ${prefix}/bin/perl] } {
ui_error "
«${prefix}/bin/perl» is missing but the linuxdoc-tools depends on it.
Please create an appropriate symbolic link for linuxdoc-tools to work.
"
exit 1
}
Crude but the best I can do since I'm neither the perl5 nor the linuxdoc-tools maintainer and I don't want to spend to much time on a version bump.
However, the MacPorts doesn't understand exit 1 and ui_error won't stop execution on its own.
How do I stop the execution so not to waste the users time on a build which will otherwise fail right at the end.
Use return -code error "error message", or the shorthand for the same thing, error "error message".
Note that you should use ui_error before that to print a human-readable message for the user – while the error message is also being printed, it can sometimes get lost in the output.
Additionally, note that $prefix/bin/perl is a build dependency of linuxdoc-tools. If it is also needed at runtime, you should submit a pull request that adds depends_run path:bin/perl:perl5 to the port rather than attempting to fix this bug in your port.

what does gitolite setup fix?

gitolite info didn't work, adding keys turned them into a no access key and did NOT create a corresponding entry in auth-keys file.
To fix this run gitolite setup on gitolite server
Question: what could have landed me in that mess?
And what does gitolite setup do when invoked for the n-th time (it's no longer setting things up, according to the docs it fixes hooks, but I wonder what the use case would be and which was mine)?
More details on gitolite info
gitolite info command is invoked like so:
> ssh git-user#ser-git
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
hello git-admin, this is ...#... running gitolite3 3.6.7-2 (Debian) on git 2.17.1
R W some-repository
R W gitolite-admin
R W testing
Connection to ser-git closed.
Bad output is: FATAL: unknown git/gitolite command: 'info'
More details: keys without access.
gitolite sshkeys-lint was showing keys with (no access), now those keys have access as I set them (now meaning after gitolite setup).
ssh-keygen -lf /home/repo/.ssh/authorized_keys | wc -l (or without piped part, regardless) number of keys and their names indicated I didn't have the newest one added.
Similar question that did not work for me: keydir entries not propagating to authorized_keys
Docs pretty much had the answer once I dug deeper, I guess. Which is fairly nice of #sitaramc.
Without options, 'gitolite setup' is a general "fix up everything" command
(for example, if you brought in repos from outside, or someone messed
around with the hooks, or you made an rc file change that affects access
rules, etc.)
Symptoms keys stopped propagating and error FATAL: unknown git/gitolite command: 'info' on ssh git-user#ser-git. Fix was to run gitolite setup. So onto first question, the title one:
what does gitolite setup fix?
gitolite setup is implemented here
my Perl is rather weak, but there's a setup function in line 56. It calls args (which parses options, so here it had nothing to parse), then unless h_only (hooks only arg for setup), which wasn't used, so we skip compile and POST_COMPILE trigger and go for the hooks.
sub setup {
my ( $admin, $pubkey, $h_only, $message ) = args();
unless ($h_only) {
setup_glrc();
setup_gladmin( $admin, $pubkey, $message );
_system("gitolite compile");
_system("gitolite trigger POST_COMPILE");
}
hook_repos(); # all of them, just to be sure
}
package Gitolite::conf::store has hook_repos(), line 228: we change the dir to repo base dir (as per config file), and for each phy_repo we do hook_1(phy_repo). What is a phy_repo? a physical one.
same package, different method and line: hook_1($repo) in line 354.
Method hook_1($repo)
It's quite literally about fixing all the hooks.
Recreates dirs for common and admin hooks.
Rewrites update_hook (common) and post_update_hook (admin).
Sets 755 permissions for both common and admin hooks.
Then using ln_sf it symlinks the folders for common/admin hooks.
ln_sf is in common module, in line 162

netlink, link to libnl-3 and libnl-1

I have an application that uses libnl. It can use either versions (1 or 3), and during configure it tries first to use ibnl3 and fallback to libnl-1 if libnl3 was not found.
My app uses another library that also uses libnl.
The problem is that I only have libnl1-dev on my machine so my app must use it.
But the library that I use uses libnl3 (was installed with yum i guess it's static linked)
so i have both version and my application crashes!!
here are some prints
ldd myapp.so|grep libnl
libnl.so.1 => /lib64/libnl.so.1 (0x00007fda33eb5000)
libnl-route-3.so.200 => /lib64/libnl-route-3.so.200 (0x00007fda32a3d000)
libnl-3.so.200 => /lib64/libnl-3.so.200 (0x00007fda3281b000)
yum list|grep libnl
libnl.x86_64 1.1.4-3.el7
libnl-devel.x86_64 1.1.4-3.el7
libnl3.x86_64 3.2.28-2.el7
libnl3-cli.x86_64 3.2.28-2.el7
libnl.i686 1.1.4-3.el7
libnl-devel.i686 1.1.4-3.el7
libnl3.i686 3.2.28-2.el7
libnl3-cli.i686 3.2.28-2.el7
if in install libnl3-dev it fixes the issue
is there another solution?
if I install libnl3-dev it fixes the issue is there another solution?
There are other solutions, but the bottom line is that you can only have libnl.so.1 or libnl-3.so.200, but not both.
Fixing this by "going all in on libnl-3" is the simplest solution.
The alternative is to "go all on on libnl-1", which means rebuilding anything that requires libnl-3 from source (against libnl-1). This is assuming that your other dependencies can be built against libnl-1 at all (which is by no means guaranteed).

rpm and Yum don't believe a package is installed after Chef installs

Running chef-solo (Installing Chef Omnibus (12.3)) on centos6.6
My recipe has the following simple code:
package 'cloud-init' do
action :install
end
log 'rpm-qi' do
message `rpm -qi cloud-init`
level :warn
end
log 'yum list' do
message `yum list cloud-init`
level :warn
end
But it outputs the following:
- install version 0.7.5-10.el6.centos.2 of package cloud-init
* log[rpm-qi] action write[2015-07-16T16:46:35+00:00] WARN: package cloud-init is not installed
[2015-07-16T16:46:35+00:00] WARN: Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, presto
Available Packages
cloud-init.x86_64 0.7.5-10.el6.centos.2 extras
I am at a loss as to why rpm/yum and actually rpmquery don't see the package as installed.
EDIT: To clarify I am specifically looking for the following string post package install to then apply a change to the file (I understand this is not a very chef way to do something I am happy to accept suggestions):
rpmquery -l cloud-init | grep 'distros/__init__.py$'
I have found that by using the following:
install_report = shell_out('yum install -y cloud-init').stdout
cloudinit_source = shell_out("rpmquery -l cloud-init | grep 'distros/__init__.py$'").stdout
I can then get the file I am looking for and perform
Chef::Util::FileEdit.new(cloudinit_source.chomp(''))
The file moves based on the distribution but I need to edit that file specifically with in place changes.
Untested code, just to give the idea:
package 'cloud-init' do
action :install
notifies :run,"ruby_block[update_cloud_init]"
end
ruby_block 'update_cloud_init' do
block do
cloudinit_source = shell_out("rpmquery -l cloud-init | grep 'distros/__init__.py$'").stdout
rc = Chef::Util::FileEdit.new(cloudinit_source.chomp(''))
rc.search_file_replace_line(/^what to find$/,
"replacement datas for the line")
rc.write_file
end
end
ruby_block example taken and adapted from here
I would better go using a template to manage the whole file, what I don't understand is why you don't know where it will be at first...
Previous answer
I assume it's a compile vs converge problem. at the time the message is stored (and so your command is executed) the package is not already installed.
Chef run in two phase, compile then converge.
At compile time it build a collection of resources and at converge time it execute code for the resource to get them in the described state.
When your log resource is compiled, the ugly back-ticks are evaluated, at this time there's a package resource in the collection but the resource has not been executed, so the output is correct.
I don't understand what you want to achieve with those log resources at all.
If you want to test your node state after chef-run use a handler maybe calling ServerSpec as in Test-Kitchen.

Emacs lisp - problems with filename-string on win7

On Win7 with Emacs24 I encounter problems when Emacs programs want to open (pdf) files. The problems remain when I activate or deactivate openwith-mode. I either get a 'wrong-type-argument arrayp nil' message inside Emacs or Acrobat Reader is started but gives an error message 'can't open/find that file'.
I tried to debug it and always ended up in files.el.
It seems that the name of the pdf-file to be opened is constructed by concatenating the absolute filename and the file extension .pdf. However, the filename-string given to AcroRd32 appears to look like this:
AcroRd32 "c:\\absolute\file\name".pdf
This doesn't work on the command line either. I have to change it (manually) to
AcroRd32 "c:\\absolute\file\name.pdf"
or to
AcroRd32 c:\\absolute\file\name.pdf
to make it work.
I don't know if this is considered a bug, or if it is a problem only for me. I tried to change the elisp code to something like
(format "%s" (concat absolute-filename file-extension))
to get rid of those double-quotes, but to no avail. And anyway, I don't feel comfortable to mess around in a basic library like files.el, and its really hard to edebug that library since its invoked permanently.
Maybe somebody encountered the same problem and found a solution?
[I use GNU Emacs 24.0.91.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2011-11-22 on MARVIN.]
PS 1 Test Case 1
I get the following error message when I do M-x toggle-debug-on-error and then try to open a pdf file in dired:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument arrayp nil)
file-truename(nil)
find-file-noselect-1(#<buffer test.pdf<4>> "~/.emacs.d/org/projects/sandbox/test.pdf" nil nil "~/.emacs.d/org/projects/sandbox/test.pdf" ((2816 7 . 27468) (16087 . 35227)))
find-file-noselect("c:/Users/tj2/.emacs.d/org/projects/sandbox/test.pdf" nil nil nil)
find-file("c:/Users/tj2/.emacs.d/org/projects/sandbox/test.pdf")
dired-find-file()
call-interactively(dired-find-file nil nil)
and the following message:
Openwith mode enabled
find-file-noselect-1: Wrong type argument: arrayp, nil
Does it matter that my .emacs.d is really a windows symlink (mklink) to a Dropboxfolder?
PS 2 Test Case 2
here is the message I get in the maven-compile buffer, when doing C-c C-s (LilyPond-command-view) in a ,ly buffer:
-*- mode: compilation; default-directory: "~/.emacs.d/org/projects/sandbox/" -*-
Compilation started at Tue Dec 20 09:16:28

Compilation exited abnormally with code 1 at Tue Dec 20 09:16:35
In the message buffer I find
Compilation exited abnormally with code 1
Error during redisplay: (invalid-regexp "Unmatched ( or \\(")
This error doesn't trigger the debugger, although I did M-x toggle-debug-on-error.
Sounds like a bug, to me. Consider reporting it: M-x report-emacs-bug.
Dunno why Michael H. sent you to a Sunrise Commander page with a tip about OpenWith. Perhaps I'm missing something in your question where you indicate that you use one of those packages?
I would suggest reporting an Emacs bug. And if you want to see more about opening Windows apps associated with file types etc. then I'd suggest consulting this page.
This seems to be a problem with openwith.el, so I don't think you'll get much help with an Emacs bug report since openwith.el is not part of Emacs.
I've found a similar error (I'm on Linux) and decided that it would be better to use a "cleaner" alternative that doesn't tweak find-file-noselect (see that page on emacs.sxe for why). The OpenWith wiki page pointed me to a less-popular little bit of glue code,
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/download/run-assoc.el (code)
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/RunAssoc (docs)
By default this package's run-associated-program is not well-integrated with the usual Emacs workflow, but here is how you can integrate it with helm-find-files (also documented at the above link).
(require 'run-assoc)
(setq associated-program-alist
'(("evince" "\\.pdf$")
("play" "\\.mp3$")))
(defun helm-find-files-maybe-run-assoc (orig-fun &rest args)
(let ((sel (helm-get-selection)))
(if (string-match (mapconcat
(lambda (x) (second x))
associated-program-alist "\\|")
(helm-get-selection))
(run-associated-program sel)
(apply orig-fun args))))
(advice-add 'helm-execute-selection-action
:around #'helm-find-files-maybe-run-assoc)
