Bug 9172 – XEmacs 21.4.9 PPC diff missing

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Robert Coie (RETIRED) 2002-10-15 14:57:42 UTC]

xemacs 21.4.9 looks for a version-specific PPC patch to fix some combreloc
syntax in configure.  This patch exists for 21.4.8 as xemacs-21.4.8-ppc.diff,
and it can be reused as xemacs-21.4.9-ppc.diff with no apparent ill effects.  If
the file is absent, the ebuild aborts.

Thanks, updated and verified.  Can you make sure it works ok for you and comment
here?  Then I will close the bug.

Thanks as always for such prompt action.  I finally got an emerge sync to bring
that file in, and diff indicates that it is identical to the .8 patch, which is
what I did locally.  I tried the beginning of a reemerge of xemacs, and it
proceeded past where the error occurred the first time.  I am confident that
your work will fix the bug, because I was able to get xemacs to emerge (and it
appears to run properly) by copying the .8 patch to .9.

Thanks again raq.. I'll set this as resolved then :)

If you come across any more things like this please don't hesitate to making a
bug and assigning to me, either i will take care of it or assign it to someone
who can

How about missed xemacs-21.4.10-ppc.diff ?
Still copiing manually?

Just did "emerge rsync" and then tried to emerge xemacs-21.4.10-r2 but not successful without manually copiing that missed file.
