Hello,

I have a small problem with asdf-install and Clisp under Mac OS X 10.5.

I've set up everything as in this tutorial: 
http://common-lisp.net/project/asdf-install/tutorial/index.html

But now it isn't possible to load a library with:
"(asdf-install:install :cl-ppcre)"
(It didn't work with other libraries too)

Clisp asks me where to install the lib, starts o download it and then it 
stops with an error:


gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
/usr/bin/tar: Child returned status 1
/usr/bin/tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
;;; ASDF-INSTALL: Loading system ASDF-INSTALL::CL-PPCRE via ASDF.

*** - component "cl-ppcre" not found


I hope anyone can help me.

Best regards,
Moritz Ulrich

Looks like the problem i had with clisp + freebsd. This patch seams to fix it
(although it looks ... ugly)
