:packages-to-keep

Keyword

Default value: nil

This keyword takes a list of packages to be retained. All packages in the list are kept in the delivered image, regardless of the values of the :smash-packages and :delete-packages keywords.

If :packages-to-keep is :all , then the two variables above are set to nil . See also Coping with intern and find-symbol at runtime.

Note: Other keywords push packages onto the :packages-to-keep list.

Note: When you keep a package by :packages-to-keep , this does not cause that package's symbols to be kept. To retain symbols, see Ensuring that symbols are kept.
