(26, 27 or higher?). If you decide to build the latest 28.2 yourself on 18.04/bionic then you may find useful brief notes, I made last time compiling it: sudo apt install autoconf make texinfo gnutls-bin libgccjit-8-dev \ libgtk-3-dev libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev libxpm-dev libjpeg-dev libgif-dev \ libtiff-dev libjansson-dev libtinfo-dev The list of options to compile with: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --program-suffix=28 --with-modules \ --with-file-notification=inotify --with-mailutils --with-harfbuzz \ --with-json --with-x=yes --with-x-toolkit=gtk3 \ --with-lcms2 --with-cairo --with-xpm=yes --with-gif=yes \ --with-gnutls=yes --with-jpeg=yes --with-png=yes --with-tiff=yes \ --with-xwidgets CFLAGS=-O2 Pull only the latest released sources: git clone --depth 1 --branch emacs-28 git://git.savannah.gnu.org And do you forget to run: ./autogen.sh Cheers, Oleg
