Subject: emacs-cvs-23.0.9999 fails to compiler (gentoo)
Date: Wed, 02 Jul 2008 11:58:41 -0400

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

[The bug occurs during a compilation of emacs.  The compilation
was *not* done on the machine on which I am composing this mail.
*This* machine runs 22.2.
The compilation *was* done on a machine on which I run emacs 23.0.50.
I have manually pasted into this msg the description of that machine
generated by M-x report-emacs-bug]

(Thanks for emacs, which I have used with great success and pleasure
during the past 20 years.)

I run gentoo and am currently using the emacs-cvs package.  I use
23.0.50 with success.  Both yesterday and today, when I try to upgrade
with
  emerge --verbose --ask --deep --update --newuse --tree emacs-cvs
I get a compile-time error as shown below.

thanks,
allan

Thanks, I have fixed this. That line should only be compiled if both
USE_GTK and HAVE_FREETYPE are defined, the latter condition was missing.

Thanks.  It compiled fine with the fix.  But then I noticed that
something is funny.  I do (and did) have freetype.  What I did not
have was the gentoo xft use flag set.

I set it and reran the emerge and again emacs-cvs compiled without
error.

Thanks for the fix (even though, had I correctly configured my flags,
I wouldn't have hit the bug) and thanks for all your and others work
on emacs.
