i've been using fink to install various packages onto my
new X on MacOS X platform, and had some successes.
but getting xemacs running is critical, and not working.
i'm trying to figure out fink/dpkg mechanisms, too, but
i was wondering if this trace makes any sense to the
xemacs group?

Why are you iusing version 21.1.12? How did you run configure?
I would be amazed to seee the dumper (possibly the most
architecture-sensitive parts of XEmacs) just work "out-of-the-box" on
an exotic platform. I suggest that you try xemacs 21.4 or xemacs.21.5
with the new portable dumper (./configure --pdump)

hi charles,

are you aware of fink, a dpkg-derived package mgmt system
for those of us using darwin (MacOSX)? the reason i'm
installing 21.1.12.3 is because that's the version
in their database:
http://fink.sourceforge.net/pdb/package.php/xemacs
if either the fink fellows, or you, might have ideas
about how to inject these newer versions, esp. the portable
dumper you mention, i'd be happy to try this.

For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure 21.5.1 won't build on MacOS X. I
had to use a CVS version to get that to work---perhaps the 21.5.2
release has the necessary pieces. I'll try that sometime soon.
But it worked beautifully once I got an updated X distribution that
actually had the shared libraries in it. (That should be fixed now).
Now if I only had the time and skill to make an Aqua version of it.
That would be cool! (Well, once I trash my mac keyboard and get one
with the control key in the right spot!)

Hi Richard,
the XEmacs Mailing Lists

Searchable archives are available for each.
Here's a few interesting articles:
