Thanks for your submission.

Note that you need not create a new thread for to send a update of a
patch.  If you used the `git send-email` command, you could have used
the `--to=` option to send to the previous thread.  For instance

git send-email --to=39756 <at> debbugs.gnu.org 0001-my-patch.diff

I think you don't need to copy the whole package definition.  Instead,
you could `inherit' from the original definition and only adjust the
name, description, inputs and maybe arguments.

For instance

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-public emacs-exwm-next
  (package
    (inherit emacs)
    (name "emacs-exwm-next")
    (inputs ...)
    (synopsys ...)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

See `substitute-keyword-arguments' in the fftwf package for a convenient
way to modify just one argument.

> +  (package
> +    (name "emacs-exwm-next")
> +    (version "0.23")
> +    (synopsis "Emacs X window manager")

Maybe tell that this is using the next version of Emacs.

Shouldn't this be `emacs-next` as well?

Cheers!

Nice - I was not aware of that. The following definition seems to work
(see also the patch at the end of this mail)
> --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-public emacs-exwm-next
  (package
    (inherit emacs-exwm)
    (name "emacs-exwm-next")

    (inputs
     (cons
      `("emacs-next" ,emacs-next)
      (delete `("emacs" ,emacs)
              (package-inputs emacs-exwm))))))
> --8<---------------cut here---------------end------------->8---

I have to admit that I do not understand that part. If I change it to
emacs-next, the build fails with the error
> --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
phase `install' succeeded after 0.0 seconds

It is a bit difficult for me to understand what is going on here,
because, like I said, I do not really understand this part of the
package definition in the first place - sorry. However, without
modifying the arguments, everything seems to work.

The following patch seems to work (do I need to send it on its own? I am
new to this type of workflow.)

Best
Dario

Maybe a bit better:

    (inputs
     `(("emacs" ,emacs-next)
       ,@(alist-delete "emacs" (package-inputs emacs-exwm))))))

The `#:emacs` field tells the build system which Emacs package to use to
build this package.  There may be something that not compatible between
our current build system and emacs-next.

I've CC'ed Maxim and Leo, they might know more than me.

Attaching to this email is fine.
Better is to use `git send-email` like so:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
git send-email --to=39804 <at> debbugs.gnu.org --in-reply-to=<MESSAGE-ID> 0001-your.patch
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

with <MESSAGE-ID> being the message ID of the email you are replying to.
You can get this message ID in various ways: one way that always works
is to look up the "message-id" header of the raw email.

Also when you generate the patch with git, set the subject prefix to
[PATCH v2] for the second iteration, PATCH v3 for the third, etc.

Thanks!

This issue should be addressed by #39375, which is currently waiting to
be pushed to master or staging.  I took the liberty to rewrite this
patch with that one in mind – the build succeeds now, but I'm not sure
how to run it.  Perhaps I'm missing a few bits.

I'd rather understand why this is so -- there is no reason it should
have changed between Emacs 26 and Emacs 27.

The autoloads.elc file is loaded when doing:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
strace emacs --quick --batch --eval "(progn
 ;(require 'autoload)
 (let ((backup-inhibited t)
       (generated-autoload-file \"/tmp/toto\"))
   (update-directory-autoloads \"/tmp\")))" |& less

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Noticed that I commented out the (require 'autoload) sexp.

The file is found:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/gnu/store/zpmsyn471y4hpgsbz652h4szyskzc2bm-profile/share/emacs/27.0.50/lisp/emacs-lisp/autoload.elc", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 5
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

And the autoload.elc contains:

Perhaps the byte compiled version has a bug that causes it to fail with

I'd rather this be understood (and fixed at its root) before continuing.

If we don't hear back from
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=39823 in a day or two, I'd
be OK with pushing #39375 to master.

No need to repeat the home-page, description and license field.

There have been no activity or reply on #39823 yet, so feel free to push
the workaround discussed earlier (on the master branch is fine).

Following the discussion in 39823, we now have two options.
1. loading the library in advance as I do.
2. wrapping our code in `(eval ...)'.
The latter has the advantage of not needing an additional function, but
both require a build system change.

WDYT?

#1 would be best, as it is a general fix, and we can even add a
 parameter to allow choosing between dynamic vs lexcal evaluation (see
 the doc for `eval', it takes such a parameter and defaults to
 dynamical).

I went with option 2, and tested that emacs-exwm-next could be built.
The relevant commit is afc6b1c0b635e3268795c0f766be408c5e9858e7 on
master.
