Dear beta mailing listers, I am still having trouble trying to build XEmacs 20.1 from CVS. I would prefer to build from CVS, because eventually I would like to add x-symbol to CVS tree. I configure like this: ./configure --prefix=/home/burt/lib/xemacs --with-mule--package-path="~/.xemacs::/home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/xemacs/mule-packages:/home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages" I have obtained mule-base from CVS and put it somewhere in this package path. Thus /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/_pkg.el . . . /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-category.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-ccl.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-charset.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-cmds.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-cne.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-coding.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-debug.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-diag.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-files.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-help.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-init.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-keyboard.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-misc.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-trex.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-tty-init.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-util.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/mule-x-init.el /home/burt/lib/xemacs/lib/mule-packages/mule-base/package-info.in When I build, I get the following message: Loading /home/burt/Desktop/XEmacs-CVS/xemacs-21.0/src/../lisp/dumped-lisp.el... (108) Error: dumped file mule-charset.elc does not exist Error: dumped file mule-coding.elc does not exist Error: dumped file mule-files.elc does not exist So the question is: how do I build the mule package (without a working XEmacs 21) and how do I get the XEmacs build process to see it? --- Alastair
