Hi all,
I (perhaps foolishly) just upgrade my Ubuntu to the pangolin
version. And now my git gnus is broken.
I'm using the "emacs-snapshot" from
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/cassou/emacs/ubuntu precise main
and emacs24 otherwise seems to work fine.
running make in the gnus directory, I get
,----
| ...
| ...
| URLDIR="/usr/share/emacs/23.2/lisp/url/" W3DIR="no"
lispdir="/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/gnus" srcdir=. emacs -batch -q
-no-site-file -l ./dgnushack.el -f dgnushack-compile
| No w3: Cannot open load file
| No MH variant found on the system
| Wrote assistant.elc
| Wrote auth-source.elc
| Wrote binhex.elc
| Wrote canlock.elc
| Wrote color.elc
| Wrote compface.elc
`----
and then the compilation freezes (while byte-compling "deuglify.el",
which requires 'gnus-art).
If I start emacs, visit (say) the gnus-art.el file, and M-x eval-buffer,
emacs freezes. (C-g doesn't even work -- I have to kill the emacs job).
Here is another data point. Apparently there are some issues related to
pycurl and gnutls (I didn't really understand what I read). [e.g.
the ubuntu utility
add-apt-repository
wasn't working. I followed a suggestion to fix this by compiling pycurl
against openssl rather than gnutls).
Since I know that in various ways gnus uses gnutls, it made me wonder if
this is related.
Anyone know anything about this/these issues? any suggestions?
Thanks!
best,
george
