#49619: no stable xemacs, no sumo package
----------------------+--------------------------------
 Reporter:  flabes@…  |      Owner:  macports-tickets@…
     Type:  defect    |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal    |  Milestone:
Component:  ports     |    Version:  2.3.4
 Keywords:            |       Port:  xemacs
----------------------+--------------------------------
 The stable version 21.4.22 of XEmacs is gone, the only available version
 is 21.5.16_0, which is beta.

 With this version, I have two problems:

  * minor: it conflicts with the ctags port, but I can overcome this with
 forcing the installation
  * major: packages from the sumo tar ball are not found: for example, the
 file vc.el from the VC package is installed in
 /opt/local/lib/xemacs-21.5.16/xemacs-packages/lisp/vc/vc.el, while the
 load-path variable is set to ("/opt/local/lib/xemacs-21.5-b16/lisp/mule/"
 "/opt/local/lib/xemacs-21.5-b16/lisp/");
 [http://www.xemacs.org/Documentation/packageGuide.html#The_Sumo_Tarball]
 suggests to use (for 21.5) yet another location: "in recent beta XEmacs
 (since about 21.5) both regular and MULE packages should be untarred in
 $prefix/share/xemacs/xemacs-packages and $prefix/share/xemacs/mule-
 packages, respectively."

 Is there any chance to get the stable version 21.4.22 back? I'm not sure
 whether the sumo tar ball requires a 21.4 XEmacs.

 BTW: why did you pick 21.5.16 while the latest beta is 21.5.33 from
 2013-01-04?
