Subject: 24.0.50; UNEXEC.OBJ not defined
Date: Tue, 15 Jun 2010 08:43:52 +0100

yesterday afternoon (about 1 hrs ago) I update emacs from bzr and it
failed to build with undefined UNEXEC.OBJ.  bootstrap and configure
did not fix.  This morning on a different machine I have the same
problem.  src/Makefile has @UNEXEC.OBJ@ raw.  Machine is 64bit linux.
I have got emacs back by editing the file to define as unexelf.o

Just thought you might like to know

The string "UNEXEC.OBJ" does not appear anywhere in the Emacs sources.
Either you meant UNEXEC_OBJ, or your copy is bizarrely messed up.

What does `bzr status' say?

What does `grep UNEXEC_OBJ configure' say?
grep UNEXEC_OBJ config.status ?

Sorry -- I had lost the original message by the time I had an emacs to
send mail  I should have typed UNEXEC_OBJ

Clearly you have massive, multiple conflicts in configure, so it has
not been updating properly. You should do something like:

rm configure*
bzr revert configure configure.in


(assuming you have no local changes to configure.in) and re-run

bzr status

to check. Then

make maintainer-clean

and run `configure' again.


If you run `autoconf', you are likely to run into conflicts with
configure, which you need to pay attention to.
