Re: [Failure] XEmacs 21.0 "Norwegian" configured for `alphaev56-dec-osf4.0d'
I see one problem, probably not related to your report -- I forgot to
rerun autoconf after applying Michael's AIX patch.
I'll have to repackage the distribution, sigh.
Kevin Oberman <oberman(a)es.net> writes in xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org:
Actually, two failures! One when patching up and another when
installing from scratch.

checking the configuration name
Invalid configuration `alphaev56-dec-osf4.0d': machine `alphaev56-dec' not
recognized
I thought someone sent a patch to fix this. [...]

* configure.in:
- support multiple flavors of alpha, (XEmacs treats them identically)
I gave a quick look at configure and I don't understand how this
happened. It looks right! Did a patch I had installed not make the
actual source even though I had it?
case "$canonical" in
sparc-*-* ) machine=sparc ;;
alpha*-*-* ) machine=alpha ;;
That looks right. Martin's patch added the `*' right after the `alpha'.
and
case "$canonical" in
*-*-linux* ) opsys=linux ;;
*-*-netbsd* ) opsys=netbsd ;;
*-*-openbsd* ) opsys=openbsd ;;
*-*-nextstep* ) opsys=nextstep ;;
*-*-vms ) opsys=vms ;;
*-dec-osf1.3 | *-dec-osf2* ) opsys=decosf1-3 ;;
*-dec-osf1.2 | *-dec-osf1* ) opsys=decosf1-2 ;;
*-dec-osf3.[2-9] ) opsys=decosf3-2 ;;
*-dec-osf3* ) opsys=decosf3-1 ;;
*-dec-osf4* ) opsys=decosf4-0 ;;
That wasn't changed.
Can someone better at shell see why this is happening and why
didn't
it happen with the patched version?
Unfortunately I had to delete the patched version to have room for
the
full one and can't compare the configure scripts.
Due to steve braindamage, configure didn't change at all between pre12
and 21.0.
Best recommendation is to run configure with `-x' and examine the
resulting trace for clues as to how it is bombing.
