Package: emacs
Version: 24.3.50
User: emacs
Usertags: cedet

semantic/grammar-wy.el is a generated file and therefore ideally should
not be kept in the Emacs VCS.

It is generated by semantic/grammar.el.
semantic/grammar.el requires semantic/grammar-wy.el, therefore
it is not possible to bootstrap without semantic/grammar-wy.el already
present.

I should also note that the version of semantic/grammar-wy.el in the
Emacs trunk does not match up with its sources.

It contains:

  (require 'semantic)

Yet if you regenerate it, it contains:

  (require 'semantic/lex)
  (eval-when-compile (require 'semantic/bovine))

It seems this patch was applied in 214dfbf, but sadly the discussion
wasn't sent to this bug report.
