2001/06/03   Xemacs-21.4.3 on MacOS X Release

Since there seem to be some needs for Xemacs, I decided to prepare its RPMs. In order to support Japanese input through Wnn6 as well as Canna, I prepared Wnn6-SDK RPMs. Notice that the Wnn6-SDK package only contains an archive, since dylib support seems to require a lot of hacking due to a lot of global variables used in the source files. The SRPM for Wnn6-SDK is

Wnn6-SDK-1.0-3a.src.rpm

while RPMs derived from it are

Wnn6-SDK-1.0-3a.ppc.rpm
Wnn6-SDK-devel-1.0-3a.ppc.rpm

which are not necessary unless you need to recompile xemacs or whatever applications that need Wnn6.

The SRPMS for xemacs and elisp modules are

xemacs-canna-wnn6-21.4.3-1a.src.rpm
xemacs-mule-sumo-20010408-1a.src.rpm
xemacs-sumo-20010408-1a.src.rpm

and the corresponding RPMs are

xemacs-canna-wnn6-21.4.3-1a.ppc.rpm
xemacs-canna-wnn6-el-21.4.3-1a.ppc.rpm
xemacs-canna-wnn6-info-21.4.3-1a.ppc.rpm
xemacs-mule-sumo-20010408-1a.ppc.rpm
xemacs-mule-sumo-el-20010408-1a.ppc.rpm
xemacs-mule-sumo-info-20010408-1a.ppc.rpm
xemacs-sumo-20010408-1a.ppc.rpm
xemacs-sumo-el-20010408-1a.ppc.rpm
xemacs-sumo-info-20010408-1a.ppc.rpm

The el (elisp source) packages are not necessary if you just want to use xemacs. On the other hand the following RPM:

perl-symlink-1.0-1a.ppc.rpm

is necessary, which only contains symlinks to /usr/local/bin/{perl,perl5}, in order to satisfy dependency.

As for the RPMs I have built for MacOS X Release, the following directories might be useful:

SPECS
SOURCES
SRPMS
RPMS

where you can find spec files, my private patches, source RPMs, and binary RPMs, respectively. Note that the RPMS directory contains two subdirectories, "ppc" for architecture-dependent binariy packages, while "noarch" for those architecture-independent. For those packages without real source RPMs or those provided only as tar balls, you can find the corresponding original source packages and my private patches in src. The binary tar balls are in tgz.

These packages have been tested on my machines (G3 Series PowerBook, aka Wallstreet and Ti PowerBook G4) but might not work on your platform. Install them thus at your own risk.

Notice also that new packages are under ~fujiik/macosx/10.0.X/, while the old ones built on Public Beta are directly under ~fujiik/macosx/ and will not be supported.
