emacs 21.2-13 available (again)
Corinna, I have rebuilt with your requested fixes: New GNU emacs package files are available at: http://68.98.176.216:3000/cygwin/emacs-21.2-13/emacs-21.2-13-src.tar.bz2 http://68.98.176.216:3000/cygwin/emacs-21.2-13/emacs-21.2-13.tar.bz2 http://68.98.176.216:3000/cygwin/emacs-21.2-13/emacs-X11/emacs-X11-21.2-13.tar.bz2 http://68.98.176.216:3000/cygwin/emacs-21.2-13/emacs-X11/setup.hint http://68.98.176.216:3000/cygwin/emacs-21.2-13/emacs-el/emacs-el-21.2-13.tar.bz2 http://68.98.176.216:3000/cygwin/emacs-21.2-13/emacs-el/setup.hint http://68.98.176.216:3000/cygwin/emacs-21.2-13/setup.hint Changes: - recompile against latest XFree86 (the major reason for this release) - setup.hint changes due to rearrangements of various required runtime libraries - moved documentation from /usr/doc to /usr/share/doc - moved info files from /usr/info to /usr/share/info - moved man pages from /usr/man to /usr/share/man -- Joe Buehler

I had noticed the /usr/doc move to /usr/share/doc but not these, and they are trivial to change. I think I should review the current web page for Cygwin packagers to see if I missed anything else. - Don't supply emacs-ctags. It conflicts with the ctags package which provides an emacs independent ctags (and etags). That was an oversight on my part. The package is available, but was never uploaded to the mirrors. So I just won't mention in it my next notice. - The emacs-21.2-13.tar.bz2 as well as the emacs-X11/emacs-X11-21.2-13.tar.bz2 provide a /usr/bin/emacs.exe binary. So the emacs packages conflict with each other. That's by design. The emacs package is the non-X11 version. If you install it and run emacs.exe you get the curses-based emacs. If you install emacs-X11, however, emacs.exe becomes the X11 version and emacs-nox.exe is the curses version. This is the way that RedHat does it (well, a year ago anyway) and is the reason it is set up that way. The idea being that the user just types emacs and doesn't have to think about which emacs?. I'll try to repackage today, but no promises -- I'm trying to finish up packaging 21.3.50 so bleeding edge Cygwin users can bang on it. It has been a year since the official CVS source for emacs had the Cygwin patches rolled in, but I see some noise on the emacs devel list that the next release may STILL not include Cygwin support. So I'm making an experimental release for Cygwin users who want to do some testing. -- Joe Buehler

Once the packaging is fixed, users will have another large download that can be avoided by doing it properly this time. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

On the plus side, I had to do it sometime anyway because the old code was not acceptable to the GNU emacs maintainers for legal reasons. So the CVS GNU emacs will shortly have unexec() added to it (which it does not presently have)... I am planning on creating a separate copy of ctags and etags that do not conflict with other packages but have not done that yet. Currently emacs just depends on the ctags package and emacs-ctags is available but not required by the other emacs packages. -- Joe Buehler
