FWIW, I have only good experiences with rolling release distros and daily updates. If something breaks (which happens almost never), it's very easy to find the culprit and fix it. Tassilo

This is one reason why you can't compile the current main branch. This doesn't explain the error: fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git I suspect this has something to do with your Git-Mercurial setup/workflow. But let sort things out one after the other, Ok? > If I understand you correctly: I should have a version, for the > moment just for compiling the main auctex branch purpose, but not my > daily use? My understanding is that you're sticking to that Emacs 29.0.50 version because of your BBDB setup. If so, you can stick with that and wait until we have a solution for older Emacs as well. AUCTeX claims to support Emacs≥27, so we can't only stay with `loaddefs-generate-batch'.

Side note: I recommend you try to resolve this situation somehow. Emacs current release is 29.3. Sitting on an old dev-version is not really satisfactory, IMHO. Best, Arash

So I cannot compile. If I understand you correctly: I should have a version, for the moment just for compiling the main auctex branch purpose, but not my daily use? That would make testing, I mean real testing for a new feature for real world documents difficult, Since as I said if I compile and install say the current master version, I cannot use it in my daily workflow and could not test real world documents, at least not for the next two months. > For me, 'time make -j8' returns: > real0m25.407s > user2m35.401s > sys 0m17.996s > on a MacBook Air M2. > Best, Arash -- I strongly condemn Hamas heinous despicable pogroms/atrocities on Israel I strongly condemn Putin's war of aggression against Ukraine.

Yes, and we have to find out why. If the Emacs you're using to compile AUCTeX doesn't have the function above, we can stop right away. So please make you have an recent version at hand, then we can proceed. For me, 'time make -j8' returns: real0m25.407s user2m35.401s sys 0m17.996s on a MacBook Air M2. Best, Arash

Well, it compiled from master but 29.0.5 so pre 29.1
the problem is that more recent emacs version cause sever problems with
my old bbdb package I using on a daily base (I wrote a lot of useful
add-ons that do not work on more recent bbdb version, mostly because of
renaming functions and changing syntax). For the next 2 month I will be
very busy with courses, so I can't effort to solve this and upgrade to a
more recent emacs version.

Point taken, but the compilation needs 10 minutes, 10! That makes
testing cumbersome, don't you agree?

Which Emacs version is this? The library loaddefs-gen.el which provides
the function was introduced with Emacs 29.1, IIRC. I remember the fun I
had with this change:

C'mon Uwe, don't be like that. The whole thing is half a day old, so
maybe you give us another day before you make your mind. And thanks for
testing, BTW.
