Hi Ville!
M-x build-report
in XEmacs core expects beta.err to be present and contain output of
the XEmacs make process.
You can produce it as follows:
make install > beta.err 2>&1 &
See also
/playpen/Projects/XEmacs/Builds/21.5/etc/aliases.ksh
in your setup.
My separate build package controls some of the build-report variables
and sets them according to the files it produces.
The build package generates compilation buffers named according to the
make commands executed.
That's where
xemacs-make-(install|check|check-temacs|all).err
or similar come from.
Ah, the build package needes more detailed documentation at
http://www.dk.xemacs.org/Documentation/packages/html/build_toc.html#SEC_C...
