I appreciate your AJ> testing, patches and comments! Hello Andreas, so far I have no problems to report. Here's what I did, using (emacs-version) "XEmacs 21.1 (patch 8) \"Bryce Canyon\" [Lucid] (i386-pc-win32) of Thu Dec 09 1999 on ZJ75T": I added this to my .emacs and restarted XEmacs: (setq package-get-download-sites (append (quote (("First Packages *TEST* release" "ftp.xemacs.org" "xemacs/beta/incoming"))) package-get-download-sites)) I picked Options Manage Packages Add Download Site First Packages *TEST* release Then I did List & Install At first I installed a few less critical packages (for me). Finally I pigged out on installed all locally outdated packages I had ever installed! I have used pcl-cvs, w3, psgml, vc, net-utils, misc-games with no problems thus far. Here is what I have installed according to packages-package-list: `packages-package-list' (buffer: *Hyper Apropos*, mode: Hyper-Apropos) Variable: value: see below database of loaded packages and version numbers value: ((zenirc :version 1.07 :type regular) (xemacs-devel :version 1.23 :type single-file) (xemacs-base :version 1.32 :type regular) (whois-complete :version 1.7 :type single-file) (w3 :version 1.15 :type regular) (vm :version 1.22 :type regular) (viper :version 1.18 :type regular) (vhdl :version 1.1 :type regular) (vc :version 1.2 :type regular) (vb-mode :version 1.33 :type regular) (time :version 1.09 :type regular) (textools :version 1.1 :type regular) (text-modes :version 1.22 :type single-file) (texinfo :version 1.16 :type regular) (supercite :version 1.14 :type regular) (strokes :version 1.06 :type regular) (speedbar :version 1.14 :type regular) (sounds-wav :version 1.08 :type regular) (slider :version 1.11 :type regular) (sh-script :version 1.11 :type regular) (sgml :version 1.06 :type regular) (psgml :version 1.15 :type regular) (ps-print-nomule :version 1.03 :type regular) (prog-modes :version 1 .22 :type single-file) (pcl-cvs :version 1.41 :type regular) (pc :version 1.17 :type single-file) (os-utils :version 1.19 :type single-file) (net-utils :version 1.13 :type single-file) (misc-games :version 1.12 :type single-file) (mew :version 1.09 :type regular) (mailcrypt :version 2.04 :type regular) (mail-lib :version 1.24 :type regular) (locale :version 1.15 :type regular) (leim :version 1.14 :type regular) (jde :version 1.17 :type regular) (ispell :version 1.17 :type regular) (irchat :version 1.02 :type regular) (ilisp :version 1.09 :type regular) (igrep :version 1.07 :type regular) (hm--html-menus :version 1.14 :type regular) (gnats :version 1.09 :type regular) (games :version 1.1 :type regular) (fsf-compat :version 1.06 :type single-file) (frame-icon :version 1.08 :type regular) (forms :version 1.12 :type regular) (footnote :version 1.11 :type regular) (eudc :version 1.29 :type regular) (eterm :version 1.1 :type regular) (emerge :version 1.07 :type regular) (elib :version 1.05 :type single-file) (efs :version 1.15 :type regular) (edit-utils :version 1.42 :type single-file) (ediff :version 1.23 :type regular) (edict :version 1.09 :type regular) (edebug :version 1.08 :type regular) (dired :version 1.06 :type regular) (debug :version 1.11 :type regular) (cookie :version 1.11 :type regular) (cc-mode :version 1.17 :type regular) (calendar :version 1.13 :type regular) (calc :version 1.12 :type regular) (cadence :version 0.0 :type regular) (c-support :version 1.14 :type single-file) (build :version 1.45 :type regular) (bbdb :version 1.08 :type regular) (bat-mode :version 1.5 :type regular) (atp-mode :version 1.5 :type regular) (apel :version 1.15 :type regular) (TerIDL :version 1.0 :type single-file)) Best regards, Adrian AJ> To make life easier for me this time (and only this time!), AJ> I'm incrementing *all* version numbers for the packages - even AJ> for packages where's no change.
