Hello,

This is one of those vague I-think-I-found-bug report we all hate :-)

I recently ran "NewVersion Emacs 23.2", and I think that somehow it
created the new version from the wrong version. I don't know exactly
the steps I did, but here's some information and speculations:

1. I have recipes for the previous Emacs version in both a
/F/C/Recipes/Emacs/23.1 and /F/C/LocalRecipes/Emacs/23.1. Looking at
the recipe creation dates, it seems that the local version (that I
create myself and apparently forgot to contribute) is older than the
"official" (non-local) one.

2. I don't know when the /F/C/Recipes/Emacs/23.1 was downloaded.

3. My guess is that, when there are both a local and a non-local
version of a recipe, NewVersion uses the local one. For me, it seems
that it would be better to use the non-local one (which is presumably
"more official"), but I may be failing to consider something else. (In
my particular case, the official (non-local) recipe was better than
mine.

Does this make any sense?

Cheers,

LMB
