Hi, When I type make under xemacs-packages/comm/gnus/, I have following fail message. Even after I export LC_ALL=C, it's all the same. But if I load it in <<XEmacs 21.1 (patch 13) "Crater Lake" [Lucid] (i386-debian-linux, Mule)>> then byte compile it, it's okay. Please, any hints are welcome! Thanks! -- ���� <http://www.zhaoway.com/> make: Circular gnus/lisp/auto-autoloads.el <- gnus/lisp/auto-autoloads.el dependency dropped. /usr/local/bin/xemacs -no-autoloads -batch -l /home/zw/xemacs/xemacs-packages/package-compile.el -- gnus w3 mh-e mailcrypt rmail eterm mail-lib xemacs-base fsf-compat -- gnus/lisp/gnus-async.el Loading /usr/local/lib/xemacs-21.2-b45/lisp/auto-autoloads...
