Subject: bug#16626: 24.3.50; Unable to make bootstrap after building and installing emacs
Date: Mon, 03 Feb 2014 14:31:55 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ydppn4ro0k.fsf@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87txcg3dr2.fsf@gmail.com> (Thierry Volpiatto's message of "Mon, 03 Feb 2014 07:35:13 +0100")
The issue is this:
Plain `make' does not build the info/ files.
`make install' does.
(Confusingly, so too does `make bootstrap'.)
So when you ran
make
sudo make install
You ended up with the info/ files owned by root.
Then the next time you ran `make bootstrap' as a normal user, you lacked
permission to update the info/ files.
So we should change it so that `make' builds the info files.
But not right now.
