Didier Verna <verna(a)inf.enst.fr&gt; writes in xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org: ... That file is present in CVS and I see it is being picked up in a `cvs checkout'. I know there's a problem with the XEmacs package file hack-package-index.el (I had to manually `cvs update hack-package-index.el' to have it picked up. Try another cvs update at the top level and if that doesn't work, try an explicit `cvs update test-harness.el' in tests/automated. However, if only the latter works, something is broken and needs to be fixed.
