I feel the same, Hany. On the other hand it is likely that if stuff gets fixed in -current it may help you in 5.2. emacs-21, for example, seems to show the same build problems since at least 2006. > I have no idea about the emacs failure, I suspect mg(1) will be rather > more pleasant to use though if it does enough for you...

Hany: thanks your reports, I'll hope they'll help in the end. -- Jérémie Courrèges-Anglas GPG Key fingerprint: 61DB D9A0 00A4 67CF 2A90 8961 6191 8FBF 06A1 1494
