bug#66851: 30.0.50; Building emacs with native compilation fails

[Nikos Patikas]

Hi,

I am having trouble to build emacs with the native-compilation flag.

I am using the following build options on the current master:

commit 5f371ca07be891cc41e8e80b8a1bc9ffcc909363 (HEAD -> master, origin/master, 
origin/HEAD)
Author: Stefan Monnier <monnier@iro.umontreal.ca>

    * lisp/emacs-lisp/comp.el: Remove redundant requires


I build with the following options:

./configure --with-json \
            --with-imagemagick\
            --with-pgtk\
            --with-tree-sitter\
            --with-native-compilation


During make, I get a huge lisp code truncation followed by this error
message:

Symbol’s function definition is void: cl-find-class
make[3]: *** [Makefile:323: emacs-lisp/loaddefs-gen.elc] Error 255

***
*** "make all" failed with exit status 2.

If remove the native comp flag then it builds fine.


Wondering if this affects only my system.

Best,
Nikos
