(For what it's worth for some of my own stuff I ended up writing a few lines of lisp calling `generate-file-autoloads' on each file, rather than `batch-update-autoloads'. I forget exactly what I didn't like about the batch update, it might have been only I wanted a header comment and maybe a footer with a `provide'.) -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i586) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-486 Locale: LANG=en_AU, LC_CTYPE=en_AU (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages emacs-goodies-el depends on: ii bash 3.2-5 The GNU Bourne Again SHell ii emacs21 [emacsen] 21.4a+1-5.7 The GNU Emacs editor ii emacs22-gtk [emacsen] 22.3+1-1 The GNU Emacs editor (with GTK use ii emacs23 [emacsen] 23.1+1-4 The GNU Emacs editor (with GTK+ us ii xemacs21-mule [emacsen] 21.4.22-2 highly customizable text editor -- Versions of packages emacs-goodies-el recommends: ii dict 1.11.1+dfsg-3 dictionary client ii perl-doc 5.10.1-2 Perl documentation ii wget 1.12-1 retrieves files from the web emacs-goodies-el suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
