Hmm, with your combination of USE flags xemacs doesn't even compile for me. Are you sure that this is the correct set?

What is problematic with these flags? What flags should I remove? I am convinced that I could xemacs emerge with these flags in the past.

The combination of "motif -xft" exposed a bug in the xemacs source code causing compilation failure, at least with openmotif 2.3.3.

I fixed that last night, but I can't reproduce the check-features.el failure.
Comment 5 Juergen Rose 2011-07-01 08:58:36 UTC
At two systems at home 'emerge xemacs' fails with this check-features.el issue, at work, where I can check it now, I have the same USE flags, openmotif-2.3.3 is installed and the reemerge of xemacs-21.5.31 works like a charm:

The only USE flag I have set especially for xemacs (i.e. in /etc/portage/package.use) is the mule flag, the rest is from /etc/make.conf.

If I look in the output 'emerge -vD xemacs' on moose (where it works) for check-features.el, I see:
...

Could it be that the issue is a MAKEOPTS problem? At moose with 'MAKEOPTS="-j5"'
 it works, at condor probably with 'MAKEOPTS="-j3"' it fails.

My problem was with motif[xft] and xemacs[-xft], which is something that the ebuild actually does not allow. I was compiling outside of the package manager so I didn't notice this. Using motif[-xft] and xemacs[-xft] should work fine.

It's unlikely to be related to MAKEOPTS, but it's easy to test for by using MAKEOPTS="-j1" and trying to install.

check-features.el is not something that is generated, it just tests for working tooltalk and sparcworks support. I don't really see how this would fail, especially with a "could not load" error.

Things to try: go to the build directory, cd into src, and run "./xemacs -no-packages -batch check-features.el" by hand. It could be useful to use strace with it to determine what is really going on: "strace -o out ./xemacs -no-packages -batch check-features.el"
Comment 8 Juergen Rose 2011-08-17 07:07:07 UTC
I had this problem again on an other computer during 'emerge -uveDN system'.
The xft USE flag was originally meither for openmotif nor xemacs set. Adding it to both packages does not remove the error. MAKEOPTS="-j1" is set.

If I cd to /var/tmp/portage/app-editors/xemacs-21.5.31/work/xemacs-21.5.31/src
and try './xemacs -no-packages -batch check-features.el', it runs without problems, but './xemacs -no-packages -batch -l check-features.el' fails:

root@grizzly:/var/tmp/portage/app-editors/xemacs-21.5.31/work/xemacs-21.5.31/src(33)# find . -name check-features.el

It seems, that there is really no check-features.el. If I go three directories upwards and search again, I find it:

root@grizzly:/var/tmp/portage/app-editors/xemacs-21.5.31/work/xemacs-21.5.31/src(34)# cd ../../..
root@grizzly:/var/tmp/portage/app-editors/xemacs-21.5.31(36)# find . -name check-features.el\*
./work/xemacs-21.5.31/lisp/check-features.elc
./work/xemacs-21.5.31/lisp/check-features.el


Then I removed /var/tmp/portage/app-editors/xemacs-21.5.31 and tried without success once more. As the next step I deinstalled xemacs and tried to install again. That works!

The next 'emerge -v1 xemacs' fails again with the usual error. I.e. 'emerge xemacs' works only if xemacs is not installed.

I have the feeling that this is an error.

And again I could use as a workaround, to delete xemacs and than emerge again world, what also emerged xemacs.

Do you perhaps have an environment variable set up to find lisp or packages? Something like `EMACSEARLYPACKAGES',`EMACSLATEPACKAGES', `EMACSLASTPACKAGES' or something similar?
Comment 14 Juergen Rose 2012-02-02 15:54:59 UTC

> Any news?

No. I don't have much time for Gentoo at the moment and I can't reproduce this, which makes fixing this problem pretty much impossible for me...
Comment 17 CHI-YEH CHEN 2013-02-17 11:58:08 UTC
I also have this problem.
But I try link to work tree. 
be like this
	ln -s /var/tmp/portage/app-editors/xemacs-21.5.31/work/xemacs-21.5.31/lisp/check-features.el /var/tmp/portage/app-editors/xemacs-21.5.31/work/xemacs-21.5.31/src/check-features.el
into src_prepared() in xemacs-21.5.31.ebuild

It will build success.
Can anyone update this command reference environment to xemacs-21.5.31.ebuild.
Comment 18 Alexandre Ferreira 2013-04-11 04:27:26 UTC
Same problem here. The attached patch and ebuild allows it to compile cleanly in my machine. The problem is the missing $(LIST) for the check-features.el.
Comment 19 Alexandre Ferreira 2013-04-11 04:29:16 UTC
Created attachment 345166 [details, diff]
patch to fix compilation of check-features.pl

This patch just add the $(LIST) at the Makefile.in.in
Comment 20 Alexandre Ferreira 2013-04-11 04:30:05 UTC
Created attachment 345168 [details]
New ebuild that applies the check-features patch
Comment 21 Mats Lidell gentoo-dev 2013-04-11 21:51:59 UTC
Thanks for the patch. I'm working on the my first xemacs ebuilds (and have some other problems to get that right) but when I'm done with it I'll take a closer look on this.
Comment 22 Mats Lidell gentoo-dev 2014-07-05 16:23:37 UTC
I'm afraid I can't reproduce this problem. There has been some fixes related to loading elisp files during the build in the latest ebuilds. Is this still a problem in the latest, 21.5.34-r2, ebuild?
Comment 23 Mats Lidell gentoo-dev 2014-08-01 21:08:59 UTC
From the description it sounds like similar problems that has been solved with xemacs-21.5.34-r2. Please reopen bug if problem still occurs with xemacs-21.5.34-r2 or later.
