compilation error emacs cvs tree

compilation error emacs cvs tree

[Karol Szkudlarek]

Hello!

I want to build emacs from the latest cvs. And after:

cvs up
and ./configure
and make bootstrap
I got the following error:

makeinfo -I. -I/home/karol/var/cvs/emacs/emacs/lispref 
/home/karol/var/cvs/emacs/emacs/lispref/elisp.texi -o 
/home/karol/var/cvs/emacs/emacs/lispref/../info/elisp
/home/karol/var/cvs/emacs/emacs/lispref//locals.texi:202: Cross 
reference to nonexistent node `Yet to be written' (perhaps incorrect 
sectioning?).
/home/karol/var/cvs/emacs/emacs/lispref//locals.texi:136: Cross 
reference to nonexistent node `Yet to be written' (perhaps incorrect 
sectioning?).
makeinfo: Removing output file 
`/home/karol/var/cvs/emacs/emacs/lispref/../info/elisp' due to errors; 
use --force to preserve.
make[1]: *** [/home/karol/var/cvs/emacs/emacs/lispref/../info/elisp] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/karol/var/cvs/emacs/emacs/lispref'
make: *** [info] Error 2


Any help appreciated,
Karol

This is a known problem.  Richard reversed the fix I applied several
days ago to CVS, but you can apply my fix to your own copy of locals.texi:

locals.texi contains:

@item line-spacing
@c Cause an error so we will fix this.
@xref{Yet to be written}.

and:

@item vertical-scroll-bar
@xref{Yet to be written}.
@end table

Replace these two by:

@item line-spacing
@c Cause an error so we will fix this.
@c @xref{Yet to be written}.

and:

@item vertical-scroll-bar
@c @xref{Yet to be written}.
@end table

and bootstrapping will work fine.

Sincerely,

Luc.
