Bug: xemacs-emacs-common depends on xemacs

Bug: xemacs-emacs-common depends on xemacs

[Clive Standbridge]

I have had emacs installed in my Cygwin setups for some time. emacs
depends on xemacs-emacs-common.
Recently (1-2 weeks ago), my cygwin updates have picked up a new
version of xemacs-emacs-common (21.4.22-1), and this version tries to
install xemacs as a dependency. This seems back to front.

I've observed this with Cygwin 1.5 on Windows XP Pro, and Cygwin 1.7
in Windows Vista Home Premium.

Pardon me, I sent this prematurely.

Can anyone confirm whether this is a bug or feature? And if it's a
feature, why?

Thanks in advance,
Clive

It's a bug in the setup.hint file of xemacs-emacs-common which already
had been discussed.  I removed the dependency to xemacs on cygwin.com.

Thanks for the quick reply Corinna.
I didn't see the previous discussion (I guess I didn't look far enough
back).


That sounds good. Hopefully it'll be on the mirrors soon.

Thanks again,
Clive
