Package: emacs
Severity: important
Version: 24.3

It seems Emacs (still) cannot be built in a directory whose name contains
non-ascii characters. Ref:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2013-09/msg00033.html

If it cannot be made to work, configure should abort with an error in
such cases.

I have some vague memory that it also might not work with spaces in the
names, but did not test.

Similar restrictions may apply to the install --prefix as well.

No further comments, and I got fed up with resolving merge conflicts
every day, so I committed the changes, and I'm marking this bug done.

Thanks to everybody for their feedback and support.
