Hi Norbert!
mule-base fails to install under
"XEmacs 21.5 (beta13) \"cauliflower\" [Lucid] (i586-pc-win32, Mule) of
Sat May 17 2003 on D5DC120J"
with default for
package-admin-install-function
package-admin-install-function-mswindows
which uses minitar.
Signaling: (wrong-type-argument number-char-or-marker-p "unknown signal
")
happens in call-process during
(defun package-admin-install-function-mswindows (file pkg-dir buffer)
"Install function for mswindows."
(let ((default-directory (file-name-as-directory pkg-dir)))
(unless (file-directory-p default-directory)
(make-directory default-directory t))
(call-process "minitar" nil buffer t file)))
I'll take a look.
Best regards,
Adrian
