But even if you don't include the elc files, you do distribute the Emacs executable. This executable includes copies of the predumped elc files and is able to rebuild the other elc files without bootstrapping. > If you remove ldefs-boot.el, make bootstrap fails. Use `cd lisp; make (re)compile'. Stefan _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
