Missing launch folder #132

Closed apj68 closed 1 year ago

apj68 commented 1 year ago

I'm building on MacOS 10.14.6 which is as high as my hardware takes me. For some reason none of the other Emacs builds work for me but for the past couple of builds (25 and 27) I've been able to use your builder to successfully build. Currently, however, I don't get a launch folder so the combine-and-package step fails.

Hope you can provide some tips on troubleshooting!

You need to run make in the build-emacs directory to compile the rust launcher (you also need the rust compiler installed). That tries to build a fat binary (arm, x86_64). If that isn't working for whatever reason then you can build a non-fat binary:

cargo build --release && cp target/release/launch .

That will build it and stick it in the project root where the combine-and-package program expects it.

That worked, thanks for your help!
