[ESS] build problem

[Sparapani, Rodney]

Hi Tom:

I don�t have 28 on this machine. I am using 26 since there is not much
benefit upgrading.  But, anyways, ess-gretl.el appears to offer Gretl
support.  Since you are interested in R, just delete that file.  For me,
the build goes fine without it.  Thanks

However, I now get this message from the build:


...

In toplevel form:

ess-gretl.el:40:1: Warning: Package cl is deprecated

Eager macro-expansion failure: (wrong-number-of-arguments (3 . 4) 2)

Eager macro-expansion failure: (wrong-number-of-arguments (3 . 4) 2)

ess-gretl.el:40:1: Error: Wrong number of arguments: (3 . 4), 2

make[1]: *** [ess-gretl.elc] Error 1

make: *** [all] Error 2

ess-18.10.2 %


I get this error when I try to build with 'make', but I also get the '(wrong-number-of-arguments (3 . 4)  2)' when I don't try to build and just use (require 'ess-r-mode). This is emacs 28 on a Mac.

I have always found the elisp debugger a little mysterious, so I am not sure I am reading this correctly. But I wonder if this is right on line 560 of ess-r-package.el:

559 (defalias 'ess-toggle-developer 'ess-developer)
560 (define-obsolete-function-alias 'ess-r-devtools-check-package-buildwin 'ess-r-devtools-check-with-winbuilder)

I think the error says that this macro needs 3 or 4 args, but it seems only to have two. Anyway, adding a third argument seems to make it work, but I don't know what that third argument should be.

Thank you,

 -Tom

Oof, that was pretty dumb, thank you for the help. And for being kind about the help.

Hi Tom:

The relevant error is above that�
make[1]: emacs: No such file or directory

Take a look at the file Makeconf and edit it appropriately
for your file locations.
