Is this the right place for a 20.4 question, or should I try the newsgroup (or 21.0)? Config: MkLinux, gcc 2.8.0, xemacs-20.4.tar.gz. Running ./configure fails with messages in config.log saying: ld: cannot open linker script file ppc.ldscript: No such file or directory $ grep ldscript src/m/powerpc.h #define LD_SWITCH_MACHINE -T ppc.ldscript [ I think this should be -T ${srcdir}/src/ppc.ldscript if anything ] LD_SWITCH_MACHINE gets passed to gcc eventually. But, there is no ppc.ldscript anywhere in the tree. I have a ppc.ldscript 'patch' from a xemacs-20.3 rpm, and that gets configure to run to completion. Why isn't there a ppc.ldscript in xemacs-20.4? There's an ldscript /usr/lib/ldscripts/elf32ppc.x that looks very similar to ppc.ldscript. Maybe ppc.ldscript isn't needed anymore with an elf ld? I'm not up on the history of elf + ld. -Justin vallon(a)mindspring.com
