Hi, I am seeing a problem regarding the way the file mtime seems to be set when building packages in the build system. Specifically, I am seeing this problem when building the emacs-vm package, where the building process compiles Emacs lisp (*.el) files to compiled elisp files (*.elc). The uncompiled files are packaged in a sub-package emacs-vm-el, and the byte compiled files, which should be newer than their uncompiled counterparts, are packaged in emacs-vm. Installing both emacs-vm and emacs-vm-el packages, I see: $ ls -l --full-time /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/vm/vm-version* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5732 2007-10-13 00:44:39.000000000 +0100 /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/vm/vm-version.el -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5559 2007-10-13 00:44:38.000000000 +0100 /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/vm/vm-version.elc See how the byte compiled file, which should be newer, has an older mtime than the uncompiled file? This is causing Emacs to ignore the byte compiled files. Am I doing something dumb when building the packages, or is there a buildsystem problem?
