First, there is zero need to cc emacs-devel on bug reports.

You don't need to bootstrap a pretest. Why are you doing that?
Just configure; make; make install.

There is a maintainer-clean rule in oldXMenu/Makefile.in, so I don't
know why this happened to you. Did oldXMenu/Makefile exist?

I guess you already deleted your src/Makefile at this point.


I'm pretty confused as to what you are doing. Did you just extract the
tarfile and run `make bootstrap'? You need to configure, then make, then
make install, as is standard.

I did

$ tar Jxvf emacs-24.2.93.tar.xz
$ cd emacs-24.2.93
$ ./configure --prefix ....
$ make bootstrap

bootstrap may not be necessary but this shouldn't fail right?

Works for me.

After the configure step, did you have oldXMenu/Makefile?
Did configure complete without errors/problems?

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating lib/Makefile
config.status: creating lib-src/Makefile
config.status: creating oldXMenu/Makefile
etc

I am sorry it was a false alarm.  I failed to notice that my
configuration was failed due to missing makeinfo.  After installing
makeinfo and started the process all over bootstrap finished without
an issue.

Of course, if you don't bootstrap you won't need makeinfo. :)
