I am afraid you'll have to trace trough (vc-backend "filename") to find out why it is deciding the file is not under version control. Jan

The location has changed, but the old one is still handled correctly. What's supposed to go in mule-packages ? Currently, I have this: /infres/metheny/lib/xemacs/packages/ (now xemacs-packages) /infres/metheny/lib/xemacs/packages/mule/ (which contains only a `ROADMAP') Some mule related stuff (leim) reside under packages/lisp/.

If you mean `gnagnagna' == /inf/methany[1], then that's equivalent to what I wrote. The abbreviation of `packages' for `xemacs-packages' is accepted for backwards compatibility with earlier 21.0/20.5/etc. betas.

Is this the case for 21.2 ? My packages are currently installed under gnagnagna/lib/xemacs/packages/[lisp&etc&info] (it's been like this for a year), and XEmacs finds them all right. --didier

Lisp shadows 27 years

Martin Buchholz

The latest set of packages leaves me with these messages: /home/martin/x/mule-packages/lisp/leim/greek hides /home/martin/x/mule-packages/lisp/mule-base/greek /home/martin/x/mule-packages/lisp/leim/cyrillic hides /home/martin/x/mule-packages/lisp/mule-base/cyrillic Indeed, leim-1.09-pkg.tar.gz and mule-base-1.22-pkg.tar.gz both have a cyrillic.el and greek.el.

XEmacs 21.0-pre14 (beta57) "Poitou" is released 27 years

SL Baur

[This release was announced informally on xemacs-beta earlier this week. Also, this release was sponsored by Altrasoft.] Available from the usual places: ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/beta/xemacs-21.0/ If you are patching up from something earlier than pre13, the pre13/beta56 patch kit is in: ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/beta/xemacs-21.0-preliminary/ CVS sources are at http://cvs.xemacs.org/ Installable Lisp packages are in: ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/packages/ The Lisp packages must be installed in ${prefix}/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages and ${prefix}/lib/xemacs/mule-packages prior to building the XEmacs binary. The showstopper list is at: http://devel.xemacs.org/xemacs/showstoppers.html and 21.0 won't be released until it gets an O.K. from Ben Wing and I don't plan on any further releases prior to the one we make for 'net release. All Lisp packages will be rebuilt/repackaged prior to 'net release. to 21.0 "Poitou" -- port to Motif >= 2.0 -- help keymap fixes from Jan Vroonhof -- isearch mixed case bugfix from Hrvoje Niksic -- cygwin gnuclient fix from Raymond Toy -- fix for divide by 0 error in non-English MS Windows from Jonathan Harris -- subprocess signalling fix for MS windows from Jonathan Harris -- PROBLEMS file for MS windows from Jonathan Harris -- BSD Fix from Kazuyuki IENAGA -- miscellaneous bug fixes from Altrasoft -- various package fixes -- various documentation updates -- widening fix from Gunnar Everman -- signal fix in find-file-noselect from Hrvoje Niksic -- Memory leak fix from Martin Buchholz -- Memory leak fix from CDE DnD from Oliver Graf There have been Lisp package updates. The incremental changes to package-get-base.el are in `package-get-base.incremental-1998-10-01'. Do we have code to merge changes? It ought to be easy enough to write. At the global level, _pkg.el is now being installed again. gnus-1.29: Gnus-5.6.44 vm-1.13: Distribution cleanup -- it should work now. egg-its-1.11: Install dumped-lisp.el skk-1.10: Install dumped-lisp.el, remove private copy of elib. text-modes-1.11: flyspell.el updates. prog-modes-1.11: cperl updates, python-mode message fix, verilog-mode version fix. pcl-cvs-1.30: Major update. scheme-1.05: Synch cmuscheme.el, scheme.el with Emacs 20.2. edit-utils-1.31: popper.el-1.5, misc. fixes fsf-compat-1.03: x-popup-menu fixes xemacs-devel-1.18: eldoc.el-1.15 xemacs-base-1.25: ~user name completion for comint irchat-1.02: XEmacs porting fixes ispell-1.11: fix guess return order reftex-1.08: reftex.el-3.41 os-utils-1.11: Add ftelnet.el. ssh.el-1.6, rlogin.el-1.43 auctex-1.13: Repackage with tex-site.el included speedbar-1.07: menu initialization fix elib-1.01: New package, assembled by Karl Hegbloom zenirc-1.02: Repackaged -- no changes sounds-au-1.04: Repackaged -- no changes sounds-wav-1.04: Repackaged -- no changes mew-1.02: Repackaged -- no changes bbdb-1.02: Repackaged -- no changes
