Subject: Can't compile gnus cvs since 2008-04-25
Date: Sun, 04 May 2008 13:43:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <03bq3mfg6b.fsf@msgid.viggen.net> (raw)

Hi,

If I do "cvs update -D 2008-04-24", gnus compiles and runs just fine.
This message is proof of that.

If I do "cvs update -D 2008-04-25", a lot of the files no longer want to
compile, tossing me error messages like this:

,----
| While compiling toplevel forms in file /home/xdrift/oysteivi/cvs/gnus-test/lisp/gnus-topic.el:
|   !! error (("Invalid escape character syntax"))
`----

The diff between these two dates is fairly huge, so I didn't go closer
into it yet.  Hoping that someone on this list might have an idea what
could be wrong and be able to point me in the right direction.


Emacs version is the one in Debian stable (4.0 / etch):
"GNU Emacs 21.4.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
 of 2007-06-19 on etch-builder.my.flat, modified by Debian"

Locale is en_US with LC_CTYPE set to nb_NO.  These should both be latin1
locales, and I see there are some UTF-8 related conversions in the
diff.  Don't know if this can be related to the problem.
