Feel free to re-add it. I was torn about whether to remove it. Anyway, most of its code is now integrated into the main 'emacs' package, so it should be a lot simpler now. Here's a first draft (untested), but of course it should be updated to a later commit: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (define-public emacs-next (let ((commit "c36c5a3dedbb2e0349be1b6c3b7567ea7b594f1c") (revision "0") (emacs-version "27.0.91")) (package (inherit emacs) (name "emacs-next") (version (git-version emacs-version revision commit)) (source (origin (inherit (package-source emacs)) (method git-fetch) (uri (git-reference (url "https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/emacs.git") (commit commit))) (sha256 (base32 "0mlrg2npy1r79laahkgzhxd1qassfcdz8qk1cpw7mqgf6y5x505h")) (file-name (git-file-name name version)))) (native-inputs `(("autoconf" ,autoconf) ; needed when building from trunk ,@(package-native-inputs emacs))) ;; TODO: consider changing `emacs' to use a more robust way of ;; specifying version for "EMACSLOADPATH", so as to avoid having to ;; duplicate native-search-paths here.
