Details
Current versions of Git install the following emacs lisp
files:
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/git/git-blame.el is owned by git 1.7.2.3-2 /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/git/git.el is owned by git 1.7.2.3-2 Now, there is a makefile in usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/git/ that will generate byte-compiled versions of those files for increased performance in Emacs, but apparently the build process is never run, because there are no *.elc files installed. Could you please update the PKGBUILD to run "make" in that directory, too, so that the byte-compiled files are installed as well? |

No, because I'm not making the git build depend on having a 32MB
emacs package installed which is just silly.
Having byte-compiled emacs modules available is not "silly", it's
actually quite useful for performance reasons and it's also common
practice to provide them in virtually all distributions. Having
git depend on Emacs makes no sense, of course, but adding it to
"makedepends" so that these compiled files can be generated is
perfectly sensible.
