I noticed a misfeature in my very own octave2.1-emacsen. Recent (as in 2.1.34-5) installations do not build the .elc files. Older ones (as in 2.1.34-2) still do. I haven't changed any code whatsoever in the postinst, or emacen install script.
I just perused the debian-emacsen-policy, but am still at a loss. Emacsen Policy talks about startup.el -- I only have startup.elc. Could that be an issue? I use homebud:/tmp/r-base-1.3.0 [root] # dpkg -l | grep xemacs ii xemacs21 21.4.1-2 Editor and kitchen sink ii xemacs21-bases 2001.07.09-1 Editor and kitchen sink -- compiled elisp su ii xemacs21-bin 21.4.1-2 Editor and kitchen sink -- support binaries ii xemacs21-nomul 21.4.1-2 Editor and kitchen sink -- Non-mule binary ii xemacs21-suppo 21.4.1-2 Editor and kitchen sink -- architecture inde Any hints would be most gratefully accepted. I'm not a regular on this list, so please do CC me. Regards, Dirk -- Our mailserver had a hardware failure while we were gone during the 2nd half of July.
