It's just a pity that mule-ucs/ChangeLog doesn't mention anything about it. Oh well, the guilty party is probably feeling suitably guilty right now.:-) Anyway, the problem is that 'lisp/ChangeLog' is listed in $EXTRA_SOURCES. Anything in that var is copied to: ${XEMACS_INSTALLED_PACKAGES_ROOT}/${MULE_INSTALLED_PACKAGES_ROOT}/lisp/mule-ucs/ I'd fix it by renaming lisp/ChangeLog to lisp/ChangeLog.upstream and change $EXTRA_SOURCES accordingly. -- |---<Steve Youngs>---------------<GnuPG KeyID: 10D5C9C5>---| | XEmacs - It's not just an editor. | | It's a way of life. | |------------------------------------&lt;youngs(a)xemacs.org&gt;---|

Ville Skyttä <scop(a)xemacs.org&gt; さんは書きました: I think 'cp' from recent fileutils changed behaviour which is causing this. I had to fix something like this in the SuSE rpm for XEmacs last year (I think I reported it to xemacs-beta back then). From the Changelog of the SuSE XEmacs rpm: ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Aug 19 21:35:05 CEST 2002 - mfabian(a)suse.de - quick and dirty fix to make it build again. The Makefile in the 'locale' package lists 3 .elc files with the same name in different subdirectories. 'make install' tries to copy them all into the same destination directory: cp -af {ja,ro,fr}/locale-start.elc \ /usr/share/xemacs/mule-packages/lisp/locale/ The 'cp' from latest fileutils cowardly refuses to overwrite the Japanese and Romanian versions of locale-start.elc with the French version, as it did until now. But the files in /usr/share/xemacs/mule-packages/lisp/locale/ are apparently never read anyway, only the files from /usr/share/xemacs/mule-packages/etc/start-files/{ja,ro,fr}/ are read. Therefore I fixed this temporarily by not building any locale-start.elc files which prevents installing anything into /usr/share/xemacs/mule-packages/lisp/locale/. - use the correct encoding for the output of 'LC_ALL=ja_JP.eucJP xemacs --help', 'LC_ALL=ja_JP.UTF-8 xemacs --help', and 'LC_ALL=ja_JP.SJIS xemacs --help'. - similar problem with 'cp' fixed in mule-ucs package ------------------------------------------------------------------- The "similar problem with 'cp' fixed in mule-ucs package refers to the above mentioned problem with the two files both named "ChangeLog". I renamed one of them to ChangeLog.lisp. I.e. this problem was always there, but it was never noticed because "cp" used to silently overwrite files with identical names. -- Mike Fabian <mfabian(a)suse.de&gt; http://www.suse.de/~mfabian 睡眠不足はいい仕事の敵だ。
