Tested under Emacs 28.1 and a recent tip of the Emacs git repo for Emacs 29 with asynchronous native compilation enabled: M-x package-install RET hyperbole RET fails to load the hyperbole-autoloads.el file before the async native compiler and byte compiler produce these errors since the autoloaded var:append function is not defined: Warning (comp): ~/.emacs.d/elpa/hyperbole-8.0.0/hui-em-but.el: Error: Symbol's function definition is void var:append Disable showing Disable logging Warning (comp): ~/.emacs.d/elpa/hyperbole-8.0.0/hui-mouse.el: Error: Symbol's function definition is void var:append Disable showing Disable logging Warning (comp): ~/.emacs.d/elpa/hyperbole-8.0.0/hbut.el: Error: Symbol's function definition is void var:append Disable showing Disable logging The package manager definitely generates hyperbole-autoloads.el at some point though I do not know if it is before these errors are produced. Thanks for any help with this. -- Bob
