Compatibility with elisp?

[Kreyren]

Context

Researching for Kreyren/kreyren#47 to allow quicklisp implementation in cargo-make.

Issue

Currently loading quicklisp through emacs to interpret the following file returns Symbol’s function definition is void: defpackage.

;; Not working on elisp
(setf *load-verbose* nil)

(load "/home/kreyren/quicklisp/setup.lisp" :verbose nil)

(ql:quickload :uiop :silent t)

(write-line (uiop:getenv "MESSAGE"))

Question

Is it possible to optimize quicklisp to allow it to be ran through emacs?

Apparently quicklisp depends on ASDF, which heavily uses CLOS so porting it to other lisp dialects would be pain to do? Or is it practical to do so?

I don’t see any path to it happening. Common Lisp and elisp are completely different Lisp systems.
