My old iBook still runs Mac OS 10.3 aka. Panther. I keep thinking about replacing it with GNU/Linux one of these days. For the moment, however, I still use it when Claudia sits at our Mac Mini.
As I have switched to Emacs 23 from CVS on all my major machines, I feel like trying it on my laptop, too. I recently built Emacs 22 for my laptop. Now I feel like I wasted time on that... Oh well. We’ll see whether this works as intended! 😄
I discovered that I still have some old libraries in `/opt/local` – old DarwinPorts stuff? I must confess that these days I hardly use ports anymore. I just download pre-built binaries, or build from source. That’s how awesome the world has become. 😄
So anyway, Emacs from CVS → build from source, haha.
`CPPFLAGS='-I/opt/local/include' LDFLAGS='-L/opt/local/lib' ./configure --with-gif=no --with-ns`
Apparently all this Cocoa stuff is now called NextStep because of the move to the EmacsApp project. Yikes! No more CarbonEmacsPackage stuff!
Strange: As I discovered a while ago, the libraries are not really necessary. And yet .*configure complained when it could not find them. I guess I should report that as a bug.*
Trying to build it right now... Will report back.
Hm...

Do I report this as a bug?
