Even with -emacs and xemacs in USE variables, planner and muse (both) issue the error: Wrong number of arguments: #<subr make-char-table>, 2 This does NOT happen if those apps are installed as per the developer's instructions and the xemacs section is commented out of the Makefile.defs file. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Edit make.conf and add "-emacs xemacs" to USE variable 2.emerge xemacs app-emacs/planner app-emacs/muse 3.xemacs -q 4.add (add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/muse/") to init file (options -> edit init file from xemacs menu bar) 5.add (require 'muse-mode) 6.save init file and restart xemacs 7.error will show in minibuffer and muse will not be loaded Actual Results: (1) (initialization/error) An error has occurred while loading /home/fish/.xemacs/init.el: Wrong number of arguments: #<subr make-char-table>, 2 To ensure normal operation, you should investigate the cause of the error in your initialization file and remove it. Use the `-debug-init' option to XEmacs to view a complete error backtrace. Expected Results: xemacs should boot w/o error
Both these packages are in the app-emacs category which means that they are not officially supported on xemacs. As you are finding out the elisp code is not compatible with xemacs. My suggestion would be to discuss this upstream and get them to fix the incompatibilities. The xemacs herd may at some point also start supporting these packages in the app-xemacs category, but that may still take quite some time. I'm sorry there isn't more we can do right now.
Reopening the bug and making it depend on the xemacs eclass. Once we have that it starts to make sense to work on this bug.
These packages are unfortunately still not part of XEmacs Packages upstream. Given the time this bug has been open please file a new bug report on each individual package if it is still wanted for xemacs.
