#49619: no stable xemacs, no sumo package ----------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: flabes@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Keywords: | Port: xemacs ----------------------+-------------------------------- The stable version 21.4.22 of XEmacs is gone, the only available version is 21.5.16_0, which is beta. With this version, I have two problems: * minor: it conflicts with the ctags port, but I can overcome this with forcing the installation * major: packages from the sumo tar ball are not found: for example, the file vc.el from the VC package is installed in /opt/local/lib/xemacs-21.5.16/xemacs-packages/lisp/vc/vc.el, while the load-path variable is set to ("/opt/local/lib/xemacs-21.5-b16/lisp/mule/" "/opt/local/lib/xemacs-21.5-b16/lisp/"); [http://www.xemacs.org/Documentation/packageGuide.html#The_Sumo_Tarball] suggests to use (for 21.5) yet another location: "in recent beta XEmacs (since about 21.5) both regular and MULE packages should be untarred in $prefix/share/xemacs/xemacs-packages and $prefix/share/xemacs/mule- packages, respectively." Is there any chance to get the stable version 21.4.22 back? I'm not sure whether the sumo tar ball requires a 21.4 XEmacs. BTW: why did you pick 21.5.16 while the latest beta is 21.5.33 from 2013-01-04? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/49619> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
