Subject: Emacs 28 pretest MS Windows snapshots
Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2020 14:38:29 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <525489ee-b53c-49f4-bcc1-512f48175e08@default> (raw)
I downloaded emacs-28.0.50-snapshot-2020-06-26-x86_64-no-deps.zip from https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/windows/emacs-28/, thinking it would be usable with the usual image-handling dlls I've had for years.
Nope. Missing libgmp-10.dll.
Is it normal that now the choices are either (1) get the complete, additional 50M snapshot or (2) have to install dlls such as this separately? It used to be possible to just have separate support for PNG, JPG, etc.
Also, the README-windows-binaries in the same directory says this:
In addition, we provide the following files which will
not be useful for most end-users.
emacs-$VERSION-x86_64-deps.zip
The dependencies. Unzipping this file on top of
emacs-$VERSION-x86_64-no-deps.zip should result in the same install as
emacs-$VERSION-x86_64.zip.
I see no such *-deps.zip file. So I guess I need to download the full sack now.
The README-* file also has hard-coded "emacs-27" in place of emacs-$VERSION in two places.
