This PKGBUILD is a work in progress. If you find PACKAGING bugs, please let me know ASAP.

Upstream bugs are to be reported upstream. Check out the emacs-devel archives to confirm if this is an already known bug. In fact... Why are you not subscribed to emacs-devel?. Also check the emacs-bug-tracker archives.

Reporting bugs: Write to the Emacs Bug Tracker and report it there. Or, better yet, use the debbugs client included with the text editor. You will find instructions at https://debbugs.gnu.org/. Good luck!

If you confirm it is a packaging bug, you are welcome to report it here.

Yaourt and other automated tools users BEWARE! This PKGBUILD is written with hand updating in mind and I won't fix bugs arising from such use. Besides, cloning the same repository time and time again from a non-profit such as the GNU Project/FSF gives out a very low image of you.

Hi guys, I think there should be two more dependencies, autoconf and automake at least, since the compilation fails if they are not there..

Great packaging, really helpful, thanks ! I am using it adding 'make docs' to build() and 'make DESTDIR="$pkgdir/" install-doc' to package(). This provides up-to-date doc in pdf format, but requires 'texlive'. Hope that helps.

@esrevinu Thanks for noticing. I thought upstream had already fixed that installation bug, but it seems I simply forgot I already had the directory hierarchy created properly in my system.

Bunch of warnings against different ownership of directories under /usr/share/emacs/. I think that the following line is needed to be uncommented. #find "$pkgdir"/usr/share/emacs/ | xargs chown root:root

@prodigen Thanks for your report! I've revised the PKGBUILD so that it doesn't delete the .el.gz files. You don't need to patch autogen.sh. Instead you need to make sure your main repo in "$startdir/emacs-git" is fully up to date. You can do this by running "git fetch --prune" in the directory. It should pull in the hook files if they are not in there already; if not, delete the repo and download again. Afterwards, you may need to delete your src directory and start afresh.

@Pank, I may consider it if you ask nicely. "Why on earth would you do this:" makes me lose all respect of you.

Pank commented on 2014-11-16 19:48 (UTC)

Why on earth would you do this: # Delete compressed .el.gz files. Comment out if needed. find "$pkgdir"/usr/share/emacs/ -name "*.el.gz" -exec rm {} \; You break functionality of the online help.
