Re: Mac OS X 10.2.2 - Need to Recompile

Re: Mac OS X 10.2.2 - Need to Recompile

[Brad Miller]

I had the same problem this morning after updating to 10.2.2 last night.

My first attempt, was to do something simple:
make clean
make
That didn't solve it...  Emacs still died right after launch.
make distclean
make
Same result.  For some reason this never works like I would expect it 
to for the mac build.  Is there a better/different clean target that I 
should use?

So, I removed the emacs directory and checked out a clean copy from CVS.
./configure --without-x
make bootstrap

Now I get a bunch of warnings like this one, chosen at random:
keyboard.c:62: warning: could not use precompiled header 
'/usr/include/unistd-gcc3.p', because:
keyboard.c:62: warning: macro 'select' defined by ./s/darwin.h 
conflicts with precomp

Finally the compile dies a horrible death at:
Compiling /Users/bmiller/src/emacs/lisp/progmodes/cc-mode.el
 >>Error occurred processing 
/Users/bmiller/src/emacs/lisp/progmodes/cc-mode.el: Symbol's function 
definition is void ((char-table-p))
make[1]: *** [compile] Error 1
make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2

Uggh!  Now I'm really stuck.  Any thoughts on what I can do?

Thanks,

Brad

Re: Mac OS X 10.2.2 - Need to Recompile

[Steven Tamm]

FWIW, I got it to work by just relinking.  I removed src/emacs and then 
"make"  rerunning make from a two week old version of CVS.

This warning is OK.  Select is overridden on Mac OS X to deal with a 
small problem when carbon emacs is run from the command line.  It 
should also complain about vfork being overridden.  I don't remember 
what it was for and I'm not sure if that override is necessary in 10.2. 
  If it says "precompiled header is out of date" then run
% sudo fixPrecomps

A couple other people have sent this to me.  It appears latest CVS is 
broken.  I just updated to the latest CVS and run a make bootstrap and 
encountered the same problem.  I'm going to try to revert to CVS from 
two weeks ago and see what happens.

The current CVS code does not bootstrap correctly.  It has already been
reported in gnu.emacs.help.

char-table-p (Re: Mac OS X 10.2.2 - Need to Recompile)

Hi,

Jun'ichi Shiono <jun@fsas.fujitsu.com> has found the cause of
the "Symbol's function definition is void ((char-table-p))"
problem.  He said that building Emacs CVS as bootstrap is
successful if he canceled the following change:

2002-11-06  Dave Love  <fx@gnu.org>
[...]
	* international/mule.el (set-buffer-file-coding-system):
	Call ucs-set-table-for-input.
