Subject: Install on MacOSX fails
Date: Sun, 09 Oct 2005 09:44:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <wzzmpjm8xk.fsf@ordesa.local> (raw)

I used to have a source tree from the CVS archive and one every couple of
months I updated my copy to the latest version and recompiled. I do this in
the mac directory with make-package, so that I get an installer. Now this
week it failed because the resulting emacs gives the warning: 
arch-dependent data dir
/Volumes/Work/Users/piet/Projects/cvs/emacs/mac/make-package.tmp.2875//Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/libexec/emacs/21.3.50/powerpc-apple-darwin7.2.0
does not exist. Which is no surprise, because it should be
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/libexec/emacs/21.3.50/powerpc-apple-darwin7.2.0
and it used to be that. It looks like something has changed so that it
breaks now.

I have tried all kinds of combinations of configures and make-packaqge
options, but I either get the above, or it looks in
/usr/local/libexec/emacs/22.0.50/powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0/ which also
doesn't exist. 

Finally I decided to start from scratch. I deleted all my files, and did a
fres checkout yesterday.
Then ./make-package --self-contained --build-in-place failed with:

Compiling /Volumes/Work/Users/piet/Projects/cvs/emacs/mac/../lisp/./emacs-lisp/checkdoc.el

In toplevel form:
emacs-lisp/checkdoc.el:2076:30:Error: Invalid read syntax: ")"

I looked in checkdoc.el, line 2076 and it looks fine.

So then I tried in the main directory:
./configure --enable-carbon-app --without-x
make bootstrap

and it fails with the same error.

So I'm stuck. Does anybody succeed in compiling the Carbon Emacs installer?
