Description Omair Majid 2014-10-21 15:22:07 UTC
Emacs 24.4 was just released:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2014-10/msg00713.html

Can you please upgrade the emacs packages in Fedora 21 to that? It would be fantastic to have this new emacs version in Fedora 21 rather than waiting another ~8 months for an emacs upgrade.

Thanks!

Comment 1 Petr Hracek 2014-10-23 14:46:31 UTC
I am planning to do that for F21.

Comment 2 Omair Majid 2014-10-23 21:59:17 UTC
Oh, awesome! Thanks!

I wasn't sure if F21 hitting beta means an emacs update is no longer allowed. So this is great news. Please let me know if you need any testers.

suggested patch

Suggested patch for the master branch which makes emacs 24.4 building (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7941908). However, no more testing than just building of the package has been done.

Comment 4 Matěj Cepl 2014-10-25 20:06:17 UTC
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7942285 is a build for F21

Karma is switched off for better testing because of Fedora is in Beta phase.
