Hi there,

I'm having a problem lately with the packaging of Emacs 24 for Debian
and I'd need some help.

It seems that Emacs version is 24.1.50.$buildnumber and that is used to
build a binary with that name, and etc/DOC-$version.$buildnumber.

However, I'm unable to determine where is stored/computed that build
number.

Any hint?

Have a look at lisp/loadup.el, there it is computed.

Cheers,

This looks like very much related. I've just updated emacs-snapshot on
Ubuntu and I cannot start emacs because of this error in defadvice:

 (error "Cannot open doc string file \"/usr/share/emacs/24.1.50/etc/DOC-24.1.50.1\"")

For example:

   (defadvice delete-backward-char (before delete-empty-pair activate) 
     (if (eq (cdr (assq (char-before) skeletons-alist)) (char-after))
         (and (char-after) (delete-char 1))))
   
produces:

There are 2 bugs here:
- a packaging bug: the file should not be missing.
- a robustness bug: defadvice should fail gracefully in this case, since
  it does not really need to docstring to do its job.
I think the first is on Ubuntu's side, but please file a proper bug
report with M-x report-emacs-bug for the second.


        Stefan

Full disclosure: I'm trying to track this packaging bug down this is why
I asked that question. :)

Hi Julien, 

Recent snapshots seem to solve my advice problem. But the problem still
persists under another form:

  (Info-find-file "emacs")

produces

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Info file emacs does not exist")
  signal(error ("Info file emacs does not exist"))
  error("Info file %s does not exist" "emacs")

Also occasional errors during debugging pop-up when I try to jump to the
source file of a core function.

Vitalie.

GNU Emacs 24.1.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.4.2) of
2012-06-08 on lakoocha, modified by Debian
