I need to build it in order to build Lisp files. Make tells me I have no choice but running 'make bootstrap' in order to get this predumped version. >> If you remove ldefs-boot.el, make bootstrap fails. > > Use `cd lisp; make (re)compile'. Sure, but only once I got the executable compiled. Anyway, I think it should be possible to bootstrap from source. I'd propose to leave ldefs-boot.el in the tarball but to prevent lisp/Makefile to install it. Cheers, --=20 J=E9r=F4me Marant
