--- Begin Message ---Package: emacs21-common Version: 21.2-5 Severity: normal This: emacs -batch -l /usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/cus-dep.elc -f custom-make-dependencies . run in the latest CVS gnus lisp/ directory fails with: Wrong type argument: stringp, (mm-inline-text-html-with-images custom-variable) I've traced the problem to ;; So x and no-x builds won't differ. (setq members (sort members 'string<)) in custom-make-dependencies from cus-dep.el. According to comments in README.Debian.gz: Sort the custom-group entries in cus-dep before generating custom-loads so the output doesn't differ from run-to-run. so perhaps this is Debian-specific? -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux pip 2.4.20-rc1 #1 Fri Nov 1 09:52:51 EST 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages emacs21 depends on: ii emacs21-common 21.2-5 The GNU Emacs editor. ii libc6 2.3.1-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libjpeg62 6b-6 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libncurses5 5.3.20021109-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpng3 1.2.5-6 PNG library - runtime ii libtiff3g 3.5.7-1 Tag Image File Format library ii xaw3dg 1.5-20 Xaw3d widget set ii xlibs 4.2.1-4 X Window System client libraries ii zlib1g 1:1.1.4-8 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information
