Package Smoketest and the building of mew-ja.info

Hi, All the mule build of the smoketest now fails due to problem when building mew-ja.info. It has been so for quite some time, and mysterious since it builds fine on my other machines, and I have had no clue why this happens until now. For compiling mew-ja.info texinfo-format-buffer is used. In the package smoketest this fails due to "Symbol's function definition is void: regexp-opt". Thus indicating that regexp-opt isn't loaded properly. How can that be so and what can be done about it? In XEmacs.rules the load path for the operation is set to this: -eval '(setq load-path (append (list "$(XEMACS_PACKAGES_BASE)/xemacs-packages/texinfo" "$(XEMACS_PACKAGES_BASE)/xemacs-packages/text-modes" "$(XEMACS_PACKAGES_BASE)/xemacs-packages/xemacs-base") load-path))' -l informat -l texinfmt -f texinfo-format-buffer So the load-path for the XEmacs binary is appended with a few selected directories. In the smoketest case there isn't much in the load-path since there are no packages installed. It is built from a completely clean environment. (This can easily be simulated by moving away the xemacs-packages and mule-packages from the load-path and then doing a make autoload; cd xemacs-packlages/mew; make This will produce the error seen in the package smoketest.) My guess is that the XEmacs.rules line above works bad together with the (eval-when-compile (require 'tex-mode) (require 'cl) (require 'regexp-opt)) in texinfo.el. I can't figure out from the documentation for eval-when-compile how it is supposed to work, will regexp-opt be loaded when a non compiled texinfo.el is loaded or not? However adding '-l regexp-opt' (to the line in XEmacs.rules above) makes building mew-ja.info work as expected. Yours -- %% Mats
