CVS HEAD still fails to "make all install" incrementally on NextStep/OSX

CVS HEAD still fails to "make all install" incrementally on NextStep/OSX

[Randal L. Schwartz]

repeat on OSX with:

  ./configure --with-ns
  make bootstrap install # works so far
  touch src/nsterm.m # trigger rebuild, like a cvs pull
  make all install # FAILS TO INSTALL

workaround is to always:

  make booststrap install # works, but takes a LOT longer

can someone who made the nextstep/cocoa .app install please fix this?  I'd
help, but I don't want to reverse engineer it, and it's not documented.

Why not?
This is the emacs/Makefile.in patch that added support for NextStep:

Debugging this should not be that difficult if you have access to an OSX
machine, which most people here don't...

I did a fresh checkout and I don't get errors as in make install finishes with 
an error, but I do get this:

	  ( cd /Users/jhd/src/emacs/nextstep/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources ; \
	    if test -d share/emacs ; then mv -f share/emacs/*/* . ; fi ; \
	    if test -d share/info ; then mv -f share/info . ; fi ; \
	    rm -fr share ) ; \
	  ( cd /Users/jhd/src/emacs/nextstep/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/libexec ; mv -f 
emacs/*/*/* . ; rm -fr emacs ) ; \
	  ( cd /Users/jhd/src/emacs/nextstep/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin ; rm -f 
emacs emacs-23* ; \
	    ln -sf ../libexec/* .) ; \
	else true ; fi
mv: rename share/emacs/23.0.60/etc to ./etc: Directory not empty
mv: rename share/emacs/23.0.60/lisp to ./lisp: Directory not empty
mv: rename share/emacs/23.0.60/site-lisp to ./site-lisp: Directory not empty
mv: rename share/info to ./info: Directory not empty

and similar mv messages for leim.  Why the move from share/emacs/*/* to .?  It 
just keeps garabage around, as they aren't removed anywhere I could find.

I don't know if this is the failure Randal sees.

"make install" succeeds, but the resulting app won't work because it
doesn't have the .2 version of the messages, etc.

Yes, this is the error.  sorry... i should have clarified the error.

That is OK, I think I have fixed it now.  That is, it works here :-)
Can you test again?

Yes, indeed it seems to work.  I have 23.0.60.2 working.

Thank you thank you thank you.  Now I can go back to daily smoke tests.
