Re: xemacs-packages won't build - error in auctex

Hi, Mats. On Fri, Mar 15, 2013 at 12:33:59AM +0100, Mats Lidell wrote: Further: I can load tex-jp.el without problem into GNU Emacs. In my (semi-working) XEmacs, it seems to be ignoring the character encoding, treating each 8-bit byte as a character. There are what look like parentheses throwing off the paren matching. I'm using the hg tip version of XEmacs and I've just updated (and failed to build) the tip version of the packages. I have just two lines in my Local.rules changed from Local.rules.template, namely: XEMACS_BINARY = ~/emacs/xemacs.hg/xemacs/src/xemacs XEMACS_INSTALLED_PACKAGES_ROOT = /home/acm/emacs/xemacs.hg/xemacs-packages.elc . I can't agree with this. I first did make clean. Using your -k suggestion (thanks!), xemacs-packages mostly builds, mule-packages fails almost totally, producing an obscure dump for many (almost all?) files.el. A typical output in mule-packages looks like this: ######################################################################### Cannot open load file: "/home/acm/emacs/xemacs.hg/xemacs-packages/mule-packages/mule-base/auto-autoloads"make[2]: *** [auto-autoloads.elc] Error 255 ~/emacs/xemacs.hg/xemacs/src/xemacs -no-autoloads -vanilla -batch -eval '(setq stack-trace-on-error t load-always-display-messages t load-ignore-out-of-date-elc-files t load-show-full-path-in-messages t)' -eval '(setq load-path (list (expand-file-name "mule" lisp-directory) lisp-directory))' -l /home/acm/emacs/xemacs.hg/xemacs-packages/package-compile.el -- leim mule-base fsf-compat xemacs-base latin-euro-standards -- -f batch-byte-compile custom-load.el Loading /home/acm/emacs/xemacs.hg/xemacs-packages/package-compile.el...
