Do a `make distclean; cd ..; cvs release -d <unwanted-package>' to get rid of the source of unwanted packages. `cvs update' does not [re]create directories, so you should be able to continue updating when necessary. > Actually, since I never could checkout skk properly, the make process > bombs out on this one and I have to modify the SUBDIRS variable of > its Makefile by hand to remove it from the make process. ? Can you provide any more details? Can you delete the source as described above, then do `cvs update -d skk' to get good source? > Maybe it would be better if you compiled only the packages you want > to install ?

The first test of this is going to be when I merge Sumo building with my own personal Local.rules. Something else is required for doing a partial bytecompile. Would you consider a marker file sufficient? For example, if you could touch a `.nobuild' file in the packages you never want to build, would that work for you?

Is ps-print-nomule supposed to be found in the packages directory? I haven't seen it there. It's not in /ftp＠ftp.xemacs.org:/pub/tux/xemacs/beta/testing either. Adrian

XEmacs CVS tagging convention (was Re: gutter causes core dumps!) 25 years, 3 months

SL Baur

nbecker <nbecker(a)fred.net> writes in xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org: > What is the cvs tag to grab vanilla 21.2.19? All XEmacs releases are tagged using the convention `rX-Y-Z' where there is a preceding lower case `r' to make CVS happy, X == the major version number, Y == the minor version number and Z == the build number. In this case it would be `r21-2-19'.
