I don't think it's a complete implementation of CL, nor does it fit with
all the other packages.

Does stuff like this ever get fixed in "universe," or can I just write
off using apt-get with sbcl/cmucl with ubuntu?  (I mean, I can install
it from a tarball, like I do on fedora, so _that's_ not the issue.)

Just wondering how things work is all.

Thanks,
