93899 | 34 Occasionally the file "lisp/loaddefs.el" (and similar *-loaddefs.el |
35 files in some subdirectories of lisp/, e.g. mh-e/ and calendar/) will | |
36 need to be updated to reflect new autoloaded functions. If you see | |
37 errors (rather than warnings) about undefined lisp functions during | |
38 compilation, that may be the reason. Another symptom may be an error | |
39 saying that "loaddefs.el" could not be found; this is due to a change | |
40 in the way loaddefs.el was handled in CVS, and should only happen | |
41 once, for users that are updating old CVS trees. Finally, sometimes | |
42 there can be build failures related to *loaddefs.el. In that case, | |
43 delete them before following the instructions below to update them. | |
