Problems with ftp/update installed packages 23 years, 7 months

Chris Rasch

Hi, I apologize if this isn't the appropriate forum. I originally posted to the xemacs(a)xemacs.org list, and it was suggested that I might also post to the xemacs-beta list as well. I just installed Xemacs-21.1.11 (Carlsbad Caverns) on Red Hat 6.2. I also downloaded and untarred the xemacs-sumo-2000-09-04.tar.gz into the /usr/local/lib/xemacs/ directory. When I attempt to "Update Installed Packages" (from any of the U.S. mirrors), I get the following error messages: Open Metalab.Unc.Edu Connected To Metalab.Unc.Edu. 220 Helios.Oit.Unc.Edu Ftp Server (Version Wu-2.6.1(1) Sat Jul 8 10:18:10 Edt 2000) Ready.

I've also tried to update after untarring the files efs-1.19-pkg.tar.gz and xemacs-base-1.43-pkg.tar.gz alone into the /usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/ directory. I've also tried the efs-1.20-pkg.tar.gz. Same result. If I try to open /ftp.xemacs.org:/ I get: Opening FTP connection to ftp.emacs.org... Logging in as user anonymous... FTP error: USER request failed: 500 AUTH not understood Apparently, I'm not the only person having this problem. A search of the archives revealed a similar bug report below. Is there a fix for this problem? Would you recommend I submit another bug report, since the previous bug report was for the 21.1.9 release? Thanks for any assistance you may wish to provide. To: xemacs(a)xemacs.org Subject: manage packages cant ftp From: derek gassen <derek(a)gassen.net> Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2000 20:42:07 -0600 This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. In XEmacs 21.1 (patch 9) "Canyonlands" [Lucid] (i586-pc-linux) of Sun Sep 10 2000 on gassen.net Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: I followed the website doc to update packages. Was able to assign an ftp site, but upon trying to update installed packages I got this error message: open ftp.xemacs.org Connected to xemacs.org. 220 ProFTPD 1.2.0pre10 Server (ProFTPD on ftp.tux.org) [gwyn.tux.org] quote user "anonymous" 500 AUTH not understood. -derek gassen 303.570.3297 Recent keystrokes: misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user button2 button2up button2 button2up misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user misc-user button2 button2up button2 button2up scroll-lock button1 button1up misc-user C-x 0 C-x b RET prior up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down up up up up up up up up up scroll-lock up misc-user misc-user misc-user Recent messages (most recent first): Loading mail-abbrevs...

You guys *have* reported this to the PCL-CVS maintainer, haven't you? We're basically using the upstream code. -- Cheers =8-} Mike Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla

Build Failure, W2K 23 years, 7 months

Matthew O. Persico

Using W2k and VC++ 5.0 (shouldn't need to upgrade, it builds Perl just fine). I go very far in the process and then it died. In otder to save bandwidth, I attempted a rebuild at the die point to get a smaller log: > D:\src\xemacs-21.2.35\nt>nmake install -f xemacs.mak > > Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 1.62.7022 > Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1988-1997.

Re: 21.2.35: pui-list-packages broken? 23 years, 7 months

pcl-cvs cvs-mode-add-changelog... 23 years, 7 months

Neal D. Becker

`pcl-cvs-version' is a variable declared in Lisp. -- loaded from "/usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/pcl-cvs/pcl-cvs-defs.elc" Value: "v2_9_9" The key "A", cvs-mode-add-change-log-entry-other-window likes to edit the top-level ChangeLog, instead of the one in the directory the selected file is in. This makes it bascially useless.
