For installation purposes ldefs-boot.el is redundant. (In a distribution tarball it's also exactly the same as loaddefs.el.) But that's not really a problem. > Unless there is some specific reason it must be excluded, > I would rather include it. It is not large. Agreed. Jérôme Marant pointed out that including ldefs-boot.el allows a "make maintainer-clean" and then a ".configure" plus "make bootstrap" on an unpacked distribution tarball. I think that's a nice feature. Lute. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
