Hi Evan,

Evan Straw <evan.straw99 <at> gmail.com> skribis:

That cannot work: this libcurl.so is linked against a different libc
(among other things) than the ‘sbcl’ program from Guix, so trying to
load it in a running Guix ‘sbcl’ is bound to fail.

What would work instead is loading Guix’ libcurl.so.  I suppose you
could do that by removing /usr/lib from ‘*foreign-library-directories*’.

HTH!
