Re: [GNU-devel ELPA] Tarball build failure for eglot

[João Távora]

If anyone else noticed, it seems GNU ELPA tried to build Eglot even

before the next version bump and it failed because I hadn't published

external-completion.el yet as a :core package.  So I did that now. I

presume it should eventually fix itself.  If you think I'm wrong, please

let me know.  Thanks.

You can consult the latest error output in the file
"eglot-build-failure.txt" in the GNU-devel ELPA archive web site.

You can also try and reproduce the error locally as follows:

    git clone --single-branch git://git.sv.gnu.org/emacs/elpa.git
    cd elpa
    make                 # Setup the infrastructure
    make packages/eglot  # Create a worktree of the package
    make build/eglot     # Build the tarballs into archive(-devel)/

## The current error output was the following:
