Hi.  I'm still trying to get the hang of asdf, could use some help.  I
have a packages.lisp and a deftest.lisp.  deftest.lisp depends on
packages.lisp.  I have two .asd files, packages.asd and deftest.asd in
a directory, and symlinks pointing to them in the asdf central registry
directory.

When I do

(asdf:operate 'asdf:load-op 'packages))

It loads the packages system fine.  When I do

(asdf:operate 'asdf:load-op 'deftest))

it says

component "packages" not found, required by
#<CL-SOURCE-FILE "deftest" {6015F7FD}>
   [Condition of type ASDF:MISSING-DEPENDENCY]


-- packages.asd looks like this:

(in-package :cl-user)

(defpackage :packages-asd
  (:use :cl :asdf))

(in-package :packages-asd)

(defsystem "packages"
  :components ((:file "packages")))


-- deftest.asd looks like this:

(defpackage :deftest-asd
  (:use :cl :asdf))

(in-package :deftest-asd)

(defsystem "deftest"
  :components ((:file "deftest" :depends-on ("packages"))))


Anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

System-level dependencies go into the system :depends-on, not the
:depends-on of a component:

  (defsystem "deftest"
    :depends-on ("packages")
    :components ((:file "deftest")))

Thank you - that fixed it.  I think I took my format directly from one
of their examples; I must have misunderstood.
