The buildbot is down due to power cut 12 years, 6 months

The XEmacs Package Smoketest

Hi, The buildbot is temporarily down due to a power cut. One of my neighbors apparently needed to do some major power work this morning so the power had to be cut to the whole area including my house. I hope the server hall is in good shape when I come home and that the buildbot soon will be up again doing its tireless work! When I'm at it I would also like to tell you that I'm doing some work in the house myself that will result in some down time of the buildbot next week. I'll tell you when I know more.

isearch and displaying the part that doesn't match 12 years, 6 months

Adam Sjøgren

I just stumbled upon this nice piece of Emacs advertising: * http://psung.blogspot.com/2009/12/subtleties-of-search-and-replace-in.html I was wondering whether XEmacs has the functionality of giving a different background color to the part of the string in the minibuffer when isearching that doesn't match anything (see the "C-s file_name" example in the "Displaying failed searches"-paragraph)? Maybe I just haven't frobbed the right variable? Just curious:-), Adam -- "It's my chainsaw Adam Sjøgren Division is mine" asjo(a)koldfront.dk _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta

Latest ecb and cedet!? 12 years, 6 months

The XEmacs Package Smoketest

Hi, When I had problems with ecb-activate, discussed in separate e-mail to the list, I had a look at the ecb web page. Apparently they now use cedet to the extent that the latest ecb will not work with the XEmacs package tree easily. cedit is required and we don't have it. Has anyone tried these versions of cedet and ecb with XEmacs 21.5? Even tried to port them to the XEmacs Packages? From what I can se they both as GPLv2 or later so they should from that point of view be possible to integrate. Comments?

ecb and endless loop in 21.5 12 years, 6 months

The XEmacs Package Smoketest

Hi, I just tried to use ecb. It was some time since I tried it last, 2007!?, and then we struggled with an endless loop. Much to my surprise ecb-activate still goes into an endless loop. I thought we solved that problem back then but apparently not. Anyone who can spread som light on this?

Tramp's fish method 12 years, 6 months

Michael Albinus

Hi, I'm working on Tramp 2.2, which will include a code cleanup. One of the candidates to be removed is tramp-fish.el. Is there anybody out there using Tramp's fish method? Best regards, Michael. _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta

Configuring on Windows requires X11-headers!? 12 years, 6 months

Mats Lidell

Hi, My work machine crashed during my summer vacation. I guess it needed a break to! So I have reinstalled it from scratch. When I got to cygwin I was careful not to include any X11 stuff. However when I configure a XEMacs 21.5, latest and greatest, build configure complains, and stops, about not finding the X11 header files. configure seems to be looking specifically for X11/Intrincis.h. Why!? Need assistance... Yours -- %% Mats _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta

Stack overflow in regexp matcher 12 years, 6 months

Jake Colman

When using next-error in a compilation-mode buffer I am getting the above error. I know this used to work but I don't know what might have changed. Any suggestions how to deal with this?

I suspect that's because ./configure && make tends to Just Work :) Regards Robert _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta

Oddity with package directories 12 years, 6 months

Robert Pluim

I just sent the following to the ding mailing list: Hi, I've got the latest No Gnus from git, and done ./configure && make EMACS=xemacs which results in: cd lisp && make EMACS="xemacs" lispdir="/usr/local/share/xemacs/site-packages/lisp/gnus" all make[1]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/RPluim/.xemacs/gnus/lisp' rm -f *.elc gnus-load.el auto-autoloads.* custom-load.* URLDIR="/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/RPluim/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/w3/" W3DIR="/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/RPluim/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/w3/" lispdir="/usr/local/share/xemacs/site-packages/lisp/gnus" srcdir=. xemacs -batch -no-autoloads -l ./dgnushack.el -f dgnushack-make-cus-load . Loading cus-dep... xemacs exiting. Cannot open load file: "advice"make[1]: *** [gnus-load.el] Error 255 make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/RPluim/.xemacs/gnus/lisp' make: *** [lick] Error 2 The root cause of this is that passing -no-autoloads causes XEmacs not to pick up my package hierarchy in ~/.xemacs. If I move stuff to /usr/local/share/xemacs, it all works. Is this expected behaviour?
