It also gave me a few other files deep in the hierarchy, such as comm/gnus/gnus/.new.configure. Any idea why it didn't let me have them when I did the initial checkout?

Problems with the new package making scheme 23 years, 10 months

Didier Verna

1/ I like it, in particular the fact that I can install a symlink tree in /usr/local/lib/xemacs/*-packages 2/ Mew is always recompiled by each consecutive `make' command. I don't know if it's related, but all compilation gives this: While compiling toplevel forms in file /usr/local/src/xemacs-packages/comm/mew/mew/mew-cache.el: !! Symbol's value as variable is void ((mew-use-overlay-keymap)) 3/ I don't like the fact that *all* packages are compiled, even the ones I don't want to install. I understand that the primary goal of the Makefiles are to generate distributions for all packages, but I still think there should be a way to make a partial bytecompilation. 4/ I can't install the mule "locale" package. I get this: ls -1 pkginfo/MANIFEST.locale > pkginfo/MANIFEST.locale) ls: lisp/locale/ChangeLog: No such file or directory ls: lisp/locale/auto-autoloads.elc: No such file or directory ls: lisp/locale/auto-autoloads.el: No such file or directory ls: lisp/locale/_pkg.el: No such file or directory make[1]: *** [binkit-common] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/xemacs-packages/mule/locale' make: *** [install] Error 2 The following patch fixes it, although it's totally blind.

I'm pretty sure this is the second time Trey has posted this query, and this is the first time I recall anyone responding. If that is the "eventual goal", then the question: "How do I get my elisp package added to the XEmacs distribution" should probably be in the FAQ, along with an answer outlining the process. I'm not currently clear on what that process is supposed to be. "Question 1.1.3: How do I contribute to XEmacs itself?" looks as if it should contain the answer, but really doesn't. It also talks about 'posting', but it's unclear what forum one should post to; I guess xemacs-beta. john. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John S Jacobs Anderson \ <URL:http://www.xemacs.org> You'll have to pry my Emacs from my cold \ jacobs(a)xemacs.org dead oversized control-pressing left pinky finger. -- Randal L.

CVS packages 23 years, 10 months

Jerry James

I wanted to see why the PSGML package is messing up unless it is re-bytecompiled, so I checked the current packages out of CVS as indicated on cvs.xemacs.org. I may just be suffering from some mental defect, but I didn't get a Local.rules.mk or Local.rules.template when I asked for xemacs-packages. Any compile immediately bombs out without Local.rules.mk, and creating an empty one causes bizarre things to happen, so I'm stuck. What am I missing? Also, while trying to find some documentation that might tell me where I am going wrong, I saw that <URL:http://cvs.xemacs.org/packages.html> refers to XEmacs 20.5. As far as I know, that version never existed, right? Thanks, -- Jerry James

Jeff Miller

redhat 6.1 was running vm under an xemacs that i had cvs'd and compiled last night (tues). I have been having trouble with crashes with betas the last week or so crashing with vm, once with gnus. I usually get not backtrace or error msg.

The Clipboard is a separate X11 program that allows cut-and-paste between the two desktops.) I have no problem at all with XEmacs when not running WinDD Clipboard.
