i'm slow on putting together a proper bug report, but on compiles of master this month gnus has not worked. one bug went away when using a hardlink instead of a symlink from /usr/bin/emacs-28-vcs to /usr/bin/emacs, (i use the gentoo ebuild to compile and install master.) but xml.c seems to be missing, causing libxl-parse-html-region to fail, which breaks reading any mail w/ an html part. before i switched from symlink to hardlink, something would kill gnuswhen i first started it after starting a new emacs, but the 2nd time would work. that stopped occurring w/ a hardlink.... -JimC -- James Cloos <cloos@jhcloos.com> OpenPGP: 0x997A9F17ED7DAEA6

It sounds very odd that xml.c should be missing -- it sounds like your checkout of the sources is broken. If this is a gentoo bug, you should probably take it up with them. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no

as it happens today i wasable to test another new compile and it works
again.
the only difference was another pull on the emacs repo, so some commit
there fixed it.
