Re: Weird directories after compiling emacs native mode and creating .de

Hi Eli,all

in an effort to answer you last email, I started cleaning up by debina/rules (aka Makefile) and have come up with a simpler setup that compiles and creates an installable emacs package (for the GUI version only) So it certainly was a problem of not setting sensible directories in the original Makefile.

Currently, I'm stumbling with the next stone in my path. I can't get emacs to start:

emacs ➤ emacs
Symbol’s value as variable is void: auto-save-list-file-prefix

If I start it in terminal mode, I get it to build the frames, but I get the same message on the mini-buffer and it doesn't load any file.

Now compiling without native-comp gets me a perfectly working emacs in GUI and terminal mode

Best,/PA

PS: Make process kernel.

confflags += --prefix=/usr
confflags += --sharedstatedir=/var/lib
confflags += --program-suffix=28
# confflags += --with-modules=yes
# Not yet
# confflags += --with-native-compilation
# Gtk config options
confflags_gtk += $(confflags)
confflags_gtk += --with-x
confflags_gtk += --with-x-toolkit=gtk3
confflags_gtk += --with-cairo

make maintainer-clean

./autogen.sh all
./configure $(confflags_gtk)

make # NATIVE_FULL_AOT=1

make DESTDIR=$(shell pwd)/debian/emacs28 install

This creates an installation which is then transfered to the .deb package

Please describe how you configured the build and how you installed the
built Emacs. That is, what were your full 'configure' command line
and the fill "make install" command line? Also, where is the
emacs.pdmp file that corresponds to the installed Emacs binary?
