- Just to let you all know: Emacs 19.21 compiles fairly easily (a few
- hoops, like a couple of CTRL-L's in a Makefile) using "m68k-hp-netbsd"
- and "--with-x11" as the configuration options. The X interface runs
- nicely as well...
-
- To whoever compiled the "distributed" version of emacs (19.11, I
- think): (Markus?) Did you create a new configuration architecture
- "m68k-cbm-netbsd"? I'd prefer using that as the architecture name
- instead of "m68k-hp-netbsd". (Both configs will yield equivalent
- Makefiles, but the "cbm" version feels more like it belongs to
- NetBSD-Amiga :-) )
-
- I'll upload emacs 19.21 to ftp.funet.ch when I figure out a) how to
- configure it to the current /usr/gnu location b) how much of the old
- .el and .elc files can be re-used c) what I have to upload to be
- within the GPL (My current plans are to only upload the executables
- (and the dump of emacs) and the .el and any files that have changed
- from 19.11, in that way hopefully re-using as much of the current
- emacs as possible, and making the .tar.gz file as small as possible.
- I see no point (other than to follow the GPL) to upload the 6.3Mb
- (compressed) emacs source to ftp.funet.ch when they can be obtained so
- easily from prep.ai.mit.edu. )

- Later...
