It seems like you have an outdated version of nodgui; and maybe of the quicklisp distribution.
What is your quicklisp dists version?
(ql:dist-version "quicklisp")
; => should be "2023-10-21"
If it is outdated, you should update it with
(ql:update-all-dists)
; or just quicklisp
; (ql:update-dist "quicklisp")
If it is not outdated, there is a chance that nodgui is installed not from quicklisp; you can find where it is with
(ql:where-is-system :nodgui)
; => #P"/home/user/quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/nodgui-20231021-git/"
If the path differs, try deleting the local copy.
Quicklisp might not be able to find all local project "lazily", you can reregister local projects with
(ql:register-local-projects)
Finally, there is also a chance that compiled .fasls are corrupted, you could either delete them all, or just for the nodgui library
# WARNING: Be careful with rm -r, as a small typo might lead to deletion of lots of files.
# use -I to prompt once before deletion of the whole folder.
rm -rI ~/.cache/common-lisp/sbcl-2.3.11-linux-x64
rm -rI ~/.cache/common-lisp/sbcl-2.3.11-linux-x64/path/to/nodgui
P.S.
You can also check the version of nodgui easily with
(asdf:component-version (asdf:find-system :nodgui))
; => "0.4.8.2"
I'm not sure about the exact version requirement, but it should be at least 0.4.6.1
Hi, gleefree is spot-on. We added the nodgui:*default-theme* variable on May, 31st. CIEL simply uses it to define a better-looking theme by default. You need either:
- to update your Quicklisp dist (to a dist released after May)
- to clone nodgui to your local-projects
- to remove the line in ciel/src/gui.lisp
(and as an alternative installation method there is the Dockerfile)
I had this same issue, I was able to solve it by removing ultralisp as a distribution from quicklisp then installing via make build instead. The nodgui version with ultralisp was 0.3.0: https://ultralisp.org/projects/lisp-mirror/nodgui

thanks for the report, lisp-mirror/nodgui isn't the official repository and was out of sync after the nodgui move to codeberg, it is now back on tracks.
