Re: the first difficulties in syncr auctex 11.84

You should use the official CVS folder but a way to do that is to drop in the auctex distribution, add the styles and preview folders, delete all contents in the etc folder, and then carfully change some of the other files like the Makefile and remove files not needed. Uwe> and also don't want to use .configure. This is just a run-once-manually-thing to get the files generated. The generated files will go into CVS. No configure step is needed in the build process.

Uwe> This is what I am trying, maybe I should move other files as Uwe> well. I also had a look into the XEmacs pkg as generated by the Uwe> auctex team, they don't have the tex-site nor the auctex.el file Uwe> which is sitting in their source directory. I haven't consulted the XEmacs package that auctex are producing so I don't know how tex-site.el fits into that picture. Uwe> I am puzzled. In earlier versions tex-site got generated and was Uwe> essential in the current version this file is gone, although Uwe> there are a lot of calls to that file in the Makefile and in Uwe> other lisp files. tex-site.el is generated in the Makefile that results from running configure so it still seems to be generated. Uwe> make: *** No rule to make target `tex-site.el.OUT', needed by Uwe> `tex-site.el'. Stop. This is because you need to generate tex-site.el.OUT by running configure and rename tex-site.el.out to tex-site.el.OUT. The later to avoid the .out-rule that causes a circular dependency. This step above is actually not needed. tex-site.el could equally well be constructed once and for all and we could remove the generation rule. I only kept that for beeing close to the distribution. Look for the rule beginning with: "tex-site.el: tex-site.el.OUT ..." It describes how tex-site.el is generated. Follow that recipe and create tex-site.el and remove everything about tex-site.el beeing generated from the Makefile.
