CEDET

Hi all,

feedback for latest c-beta:

1. All my reported errors seems to be fixed - fine!
2. The latest c-beta archive is correct - i.e. can be unzipped - fine too
3. With CVS GNU Emacs installing latest beta fails - not fine :-(
   So i can not test and run latest cedet-beta with CVS GNU Emacs.

Here comes the output of the make - called in the cedet-installation-dir:

Tested with CVS GNU Emacs (dated from ~September) for Windows XP.

Does this report help you - what can be the problem?
Note: The first beta of cedet 1.0 has installed fine with the same CVS GNU
Emacs! Can there be a problem in the changes added to cedet in the meanwhile?

Note: I have also tried without the '-no-site-file' - fails too.

Note: Have not tested with XEmacs...

BTW: IMHO a emacs-package-build-process should use the -no-site-file option 
because:
1. Every package should be buildable without any user- AND site-configuration.
2. Maybe a corrupt site-configuration can influence the build in a negative way
3. Without all the site-configuration the build-process can be much faster (tested)
4. There is no disadvantage of using -no-site-file - at least AFAIK

Thoughts?

Ciao,
Klaus
