I don't know how to properly test some patched lisp files without
rebuilding and reinstalling. If I manually load the patched files seq.el
and mailcap.el in my "normal" emacs it works as I would expect it to
work, thanks. If I do emacs -Q and manually load those files and
(require 'mailcap)
(mailcap-mime-info "text/html")
I get
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function when-let)
...
But maybe that test case is confused. What do you think?
Best regards
