[Bug 612222] Re: [VM] Announcement: VM 8.2.0b (beta-testing) release

 

Hi Ulrich, it all seems to work well.  Thanks very much for fixing them.  It
would have taken me ages to do it!

The only remaining problem is that of these warnings generated by
configure.  

----
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: WARNING:  'Makefile.in' seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting
config.status: creating lisp/Makefile
config.status: WARNING:  'lisp/Makefile.in' seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting
config.status: creating info/Makefile
config.status: WARNING:  'info/Makefile.in' seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting
----

Won't it be ok to include datarootdir just satisfy configure?  Naive users
are likely to get scared by such warnings.

Cheers,
Uday

Title:
  Wishlist: Install NEWS in builds

Status in VM (View Mail) for Emacs:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The VM NEWS file gets lost when distros install VM.  Change the build
  process so that it gets installed in emacs/etc.

  Ulrich thinks all VM-related files should go into a subdirectory
  $(prefix)/share/emacs/etc/vm.  Other files that could go into this
  subdirectory are

  CHANGES
  README
  TODO

  Perhaps the images files should go here too?
