Hi, Tom Tromey and I are working on packaging bbdb for Emacs (see BZ 226800). However, there is a circular BuildRequires. In order that the Emacs mailreader VM (packaged as emacs-vm) and bbdb integrate properly, we need to have a BuildRequires: emacs-vm-el in the emacs-bbdb package, and we need to have a BuildRequires: emacs-bbdb-el in the emacs-vm package. In other words, both packages require the elisp source of the other to be present at build time. Is there an established way of solving this chicken and egg situation?
I should add also that building emacs-vm without the bbdb elisp source present will succeed, producing compiled lisp without bbdb functionality and the source el package as well. The same is true for emacs-bbdb. This is only an issue when wanting to enable bbdb functionality in vm. -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
