Re: Package builds are broken, especially bootstrapping

BTW, make World was successful this time. I want to run with those packages for a day, then I'll submit the patch. -no-autoloads implies -vanilla, so that's OK. AFAIK the only "pollution" left with -no-autoloads is load-path (unless you want to build packages with "temacs runemacs" ;-) make World would take a lo-o-o-ong time). We could get rid of that with Ben's new flag in >= 21.5.6, but package-compile.el already does the same job. So I think BOOT_XEMACS is fine as is. Somebody eventually should document the namespace changes that occur by default at (including any changes implied by dumpinb) startup, and how to modify them. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN My nostalgia for Icon makes me forget about any of the bad things.
