slime does not work with emacs22

[Par Kurlberg]

Binary package hint: slime

When invoking slime in emacs22 (on ubuntu-feisty), I get the following
error message:

(progn (load
"/usr/share/emacs/22.1/site-lisp/slime/swank-loader.lisp" :verbose t)
(funcall (read-from-string "swank:start-server")
"/tmp/slime.17791" :coding-system "iso-latin-1-unix"))

It seems slime-path is not set correctly:

> slime-path is a variable defined in
> `/usr/share/emacs22/site-lisp/slime/slime.elc'. Its value is
> "/usr/share/emacs/22.1/site-lisp/slime/"

(Note that swank-loader has the following path:
/usr/share/common-lisp/source/slime/swank-loader.lisp )

Emacs version:
GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.10.11) of 2007-11-21 on vernadsky

I can reproduce it by doing this:

emacs22 -q

# evaluate this:
(setq inferior-lisp-program "/usr/bin/sbcl")
(require 'slime)
M-x slime

I want to confirm this bug. To fix it in userland I had to add this line to my .emacs file:
(setq slime-path "/usr/share/common-lisp/source/slime/")

Thank you. Anyway, the bug has been fixed.
