Hi!
The latest Emacs pretest (24.3.92) contains a Ruby wrapper script for
launching one of a number of Emacs binaries.
Unfortunately, the Ruby script doesn't work for Ruby 1.8.7, which is the
Ruby installed on OS X 10.6.
There are two problems:
* Ruby 1.8.7 doesn't allow continued lines on the form (lines 12-15):
... { ...}
.select { |...| ...}
.last
Joining them to a single long line will fix the problem. However, it
will render the script unreadable -- I leave it to you to find a solution
that both work and is readable.
* There is no File.absolute_path (see line 21). There is one
File.expand_path, using it seems to work, but I haven't checked if there
are any subtle differences between them that matter.
In addition, when running Emacs in the terminal the following warning is
emitted:
Warning: arch-dependent data dir
`/Users/build/workspace/Emacs-Multi-Build/label/snow-leopard/emacs-source/nextstep/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/libexec/':
No such file or directory
Sincerely,
Anders Lindgren

AFAIK, there are no ruby scripts anywhere in the Emacs distribution.
What is the name of this script?
My guess is that this is something from a third party, so you'd need to
report it to them...

In the latest pretest, the OS X application bundle provide a number of
different binaries built for different architectures and operating system
versions, e.g. "Emacs-powerpc-10.4". To pick which binary to use, a Ruby
dispatcher script is used, it's named "Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs".

I really don't think it does.
Please provide the details of where you got this from.

I downloaded the following:
http://emacsformacosx.com/emacs-builds/Emacs-pretest-24.3.92-universal.dmg
Simply mount the disk image (by double-clicking on it) and open the file "
Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs".
Unlike earlier releases, the "Built on" field is marked as "Multi". This
might be something that "emacsforosx.com" has added to the installation,
although I find it unlikely, as they typically provide clean Emacs
installations.

The build script used is here:
https://github.com/caldwell/build-emacs
You might be talking about launch.rb. It is an addition, not part of Emacs proper.

Jan,
It appears to be the script that is named Emacs in the distribution. I'll
report this to the emacsformacosx team.
Thanks,
Anders

No, Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs is the linked binary. You must have picked this up from somewhere else. There is no Ruby script anywhere in the Emacs sources.
