Hi!
This is about '''Emacs''' in BLFS Book SVN 2012-01-YY
'''Emacs 22.1''' in''' Chapter 6 - EDITORS''' is way too old and does not
BUILD on newer LFS/BLFS systems.
Makefile(s) are wrongly formated and one allways gets this error when
running make (make bootstrap):
{{{
make bootstrap
(cd src; make mostlyclean)
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/packages/BUILD/emacs-22.1/src'
Makefile:91: *** recipe commences before first target. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/packages/BUILD/emacs-22.1/src'
make: *** [bootstrap-clean-before-fast] Error 2
}}}
'''
SOLUTION:'''
Update Book to use
emacs-23.3b
( emacs-23.3b.tar.bz2 )
from :[[BR]]
http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/emacs/emacs-23.3b.tar.bz2
And using same configure / make / make check / install procedure works.
Here is the updated Emacs Chapter:
{{{
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib \
--localstatedir=/var &&
make bootstrap
}}}
'''(now as root)'''
{{{
make install &&
chown -v -R root:root /usr/share/emacs/
}}}
Also building GUILE (guile-2.0.3) against it works just fine.[[BR]]
Happy BLFS to everyone :)[[BR]]
