[Failure] The Package Smoketest

C'mon guys, we need to do something about this. I think that the people who are working to provide more advanced structures in Emacs Lisp should be supported, and we've promised to do that in the stable line and for some months after a new release gets promoted, which realistically is a year away (at minimum). Even though the monkey-patch hack I suggested is nowhere near as general as I thought (I think it was Mike Kupfer who made me understand that, thanks, Mike!), I still like it better (ie, think it is as clean and more generalizable) than having to patch stable versions to keep up with advances in packages' technology. But I'll go with whatever Vin and Norbert think is best. The alternatives on the table are - My monkey-patch, which installs 21.5's autoloads builder into 21.4 during the package build for packages which need it, and will work for all versions of 21.4 AFAIK - Mike's patch to 21.4, which only works for some future version of 21.4 - both, so that we can support building the packages with earlier versions of XEmacs, but have the relevant technology in 21.4 for possible future use The XEmacs Package Smoketest writes: _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
