Buildbot mails restored

Buildbot mails restored

[David Engster]

I updated the Buildbot some time ago to its newest version and
unfortunately didn't notice that mail sending for the Gnus project
stopped working. I fixed that now and forced a new build, so failure
notices will now turn up in the gnus.buildbot mailing list.

Aha.  Great.  I was wondering why none of my recent changes triggered
any build problems.  >"?

Ok, I've now gotten most of the bugs, but this still fails:

While compiling toplevel forms in file /var/lib/buildbot/slaves/debian/build-xemacs21.5/build/lisp/gnus-gravatar.el:
  !! Symbol's value as variable is void ((w3-configuration-directory))

But I can't find any reference to this w3 thing in the sources any
more...  Anybody got any ideas?

I don't get this when I try compiling with XEmacs myself.  Does it need
to re-run autoconf or something?

The XEmacs on the buildbot has all the Sumo packages installed, which
also includes w3. The warning occurs because of the require for
url-cache, which is part of w3 and which uses
w3-configuration-directory.

What really confuses me though is that when I compile manually with '-f
batch-byte-compile-file', I don't get this warning. It seems to be
something in dgnushack which somehow triggers this. Very strange.

Hm.  What should `w3-configuration-directory' be to silence the warning?
dgnushack could just set it...

The funny thing is that the variable *is* set in XEmacs through an autoload:

`w3-configuration-directory' is a variable declared in Lisp. 
  -- loaded from "/opt/xemacs-21.5/share/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/w3/auto-autoloads" 
 
Value: "~/.w3/" 

So what does dgnushack do that it is removed during compile?

I can't see any mention of it at all in dgnushack...

And if I do a "./configure --with-emacs=xemacs" and then say "make", I
don't get any of these warnings.  This is on a Fedora 19 laptop with
xemacs-packages-extra installed (which I assume is something akin to
"sumo")...

I'll have dgnushack bind w3-configuration-directory and see whether that
helps.

Don't be alarmed. I completely borked the Xemacs installation now. Will
re-install. :-|

Done, and your fix made it green. I guess we'll never know what exactly
happens here.

Now there's still xemacs-21.4:

While compiling the end of the data in file /var/lib/buildbot/slaves/debian/build-xemacs21.4/build/lisp/dns.el:
  !! error (("the function network-interface-list is not known to be   defined."))

(BTW, what about dropping xemacs-21.4 support? I know it's the stable
release, but don't all the XEmacs guys use 21.5 by now?) 

> >"?

and what *is* this, anyway? :-)

Ah, that should have been defined in lpath instead of dgnushack...
Let's see whether everything goes green now.

Yeah, it's tempting...

I figured that much. But is it happy? Sad? Winky? Frowning? Crying? I
never even got your sig, and now this!

Strange, there is no support for that kind of smiley in Gnus yet... ;-)

I was tempted to add it but it would have to be a Picasso miniature.
