Re: debugging bash script in emacs using bashdb

[zackp <zack.perry@sbcglobal.net>]

Hi,

I just tried to install the dbgr package again using the following bash script posted on git hub:

#!/bin/bash
for pkg in emacs-{test-unit,load-relative,loc-changes,dbgr} ; do 
     echo Trying to install ${pkg}...
     git clone http://github.com/rocky/${pkg}.git
     (cd $pkg && \
         sh ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make && make check && sudo make install
     )
done

At the end, I got:

make -C ../../test check
make[3]: Entering directory `/root/emacs-dbgr/test'
(cd ../test && /usr/bin/emacs --batch --no-site-file --no-splash --load test-bp.el)
Cannot open load file: test-simple
make[3]: *** [test-bp.run] Error 255
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/emacs-dbgr/test'
make[2]: *** [check] Error 2

I am using GNU Emacs 23.2.1 in Ubuntu 11.04 64bit.

In emacs, as myself (regular user, not 'root'), I also encountered the "cannot open load file" error too.

I would appreciate any help.
