This is what happens: cd lisp && make EMACS="emacs" lispdir="/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp" all make[1]: Entering directory `/user1/palmieri/emacs/pgnus-cvs/lisp' rm -f *.elc W3DIR=/user1/palmieri/emacs/w3-cvs/lisp lispdir=/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp srcdir=. emacs -batch -q -no-site-file -l ./dgnushack.el -f dgnushack-compile No w3: (file-error Cannot open load file mule-sysdp) /user1/palmieri/emacs/w3-cvs/lisp/w3-forms.elc I don't know how serious this error is, because the compilation process continues from here. I know the reason for the error: mule-sysdp is in url/lisp, not w3/lisp, in the cvs versions, and configure doesn't have a '--with-url' option so I can specify the appropriate directory. Someone who knows something about configure scripts (i.e., not me) want to fix this?
