I'm trying to get a first program to load with ASDF under SBCL on Windows: (asdf:load-system "dependencies"). ASDF is able to find the directory and .asd file, but produces a warning and an error:
* (asdf:load-system "dependencies")
WARNING: System definition file #P"C:/Users/davyp/AppData/Local/lxss/root/quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/cl-ppcre-20190521-git/cl-ppcre.asd" contains definition for system "cl-ppcre-test". Please only define "cl-ppcre" and secondary systems with a name starting with "cl-ppcre/" (e.g. "cl-ppcre/test") in that file.

My .conf file contains the single entry: (:directory #P"D:/Users Data/Dave/SW Library/AI/Dependencies/"); and here is the defsystem from the .asd file:
(defsystem "dependencies"
:description "dependencies: A Common Lisp system for detecting ~
inter-dependencies between a project's files."
:version "1"
:author "David Brown <davypough@gmail.com>"
:licence "Public Domain"
:depends-on ("alexandria" "cl-ppcre")
:components ((:file "dependencies"))) ;ie, dependencies.lisp
For the warning, it looks like ASDF is finding cl-ppcre associated with another program, even though the registry was first cleared with (asdf:clear-source-registry). The error seems to relate to a circularity of some kind. Thanks for any assistance sorting things out.
