I should add, xz is installed and working just fine:

$ which xz
/usr/local/bin/xz
$ xz --version
xz (XZ Utils) 5.2.5
liblzma 5.2.5
$

So, I'm really not sure why tar can't find it.

[BonZai-y]

I got it easily fixed by

brew install xz

successfully built!

[gcoladon]

When I tried that, I got

$ brew install xz 
Warning: xz 5.2.5_1 is already installed and up-to-date.
To reinstall 5.2.5_1, run:
  brew reinstall xz
$ 

When I reinstalled, I still got this error:

[gcoladon]

Could the recipe go in two steps, first xz unzip the file, and then let tar take it from there?

Would it be straightforward for me to try to change the formula to do it this way, to see if it works?

[d12frosted]

I think the most straightforward way to deal with it is to add xz to dependencies.

@gcoladon I am not available till the next week, so don't have ability to create PR and properly test the fix. But in theory you just need to add xz as dependency in emacs-plus@29 like this:

https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus/blob/f6e6186eecfdaaa4f85783741b9457ee58c00318/Formula/emacs-plus%4029.rb#L30

In the worst case something like this is needed:

https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus/blob/f6e6186eecfdaaa4f85783741b9457ee58c00318/Formula/emacs-plus%4029.rb#L146

You can use --verbose flag to get some logs related to PATH manipulations in Emacs+29 formula.

[gcoladon]

Thank you @d12frosted , I would be up for trying this but I have no idea how brew formulae work, so I don't know how to invoke my modified version of the formula once changed, but I don't want to waste your time by asking you more about how basic things in brew like this work.

[nstfkc]

You can add depends_on "xz" => :build this to /Formula/[email protected] and run brew install --formula ./Formula/[email protected].

[kujohn]

I have this issue as well. I accidentally did an brew upgrade on both M1 and intel based Macbook and both aren't working now. Hopefully the fix gets pulled in soon.

[gcoladon]

OK I added a dependency on xz to the formula, and it does in fact get past the 'can't find xz' problem. But now I'm getting this problem:

Do not report this issue to Homebrew/brew or Homebrew/core!

I will look around to see if this is another known problem there's a fix for.

[ingorichter]

yes, after adding the xz dependency the problem goes away. Now I'm running into this issue #473 and hope that the fix will be merged soon to let me use native compilation again

[d12frosted]

thanks to @vsinha it's in the master now.

[d12frosted]

@gcoladon though I am not sure what is the reason for the last error you encountered since nativecomp is broken at the moment due to new gcc release, try building without it

[ingorichter]

building without nativecomp is working for me now

[gcoladon]

I get the Illegal Instruction error above when I try without native comp. When I try with native comp, I get

Good point, I hadn't. When I try from outside the repo, it looks like its getting the new formula, but it has the old error:

[gcoladon]

Do I need to brew upgrade emacs-plus@28 to get the recently updated formula? Nevermind, that didn't work since I don't have emacs-plus@28 installed.

[d12frosted]

@gcoladon brew update should be enough. And I see it was run 🤔 not sure why you still see the error related to xz.

[d12frosted]

As a workaround, can you please try removing this line and building again using brew install --formula [email protected]?

I have no idea what to do about this illegal instruction thing.

In case I didn't state it clearly before, I am running on an Apple M1 Macbook Pro running Monterey 12.5.

The emacs release notes contain this information Although the portable dumper has been tested, it may have a bug on unusual platforms. If you require traditional unexec dumping you can use the configure-time option '--with-dumping=unexec'; however, please file a bug report describing the situation, as unexec dumping is deprecated, and we plan on removing it in some future release.

I wonder if you would be able to build with --with-dumping=unexec. Perhaps M1 is an unusual platform

OK that's worth a try. Where would I put that flag? I can't just pass it to brew, and expect it to be passed along to configure, correct?

[ingorichter]

you can install with options brew reinstall d12frosted/emacs-plus/emacs-plus@28 --with-dumping=unexec

[gcoladon]

you can install with options brew reinstall d12frosted/emacs-plus/emacs-plus@28 --with-dumping=unexec

Brew's response to that command is

Error: invalid option: --with-dumping=unexec

[ingorichter]

sigh, looks like that config option is not expose/available. My bad 👎 It's probably available for the emacs build scripts but it not passed along from brew

[d12frosted]

@ingorichter yup, it's not exposed. But even more, --with-dumping=unexec is not valida in brew as far as I know. This is why we have separate options for each icon. E.g. instead of --with-icon=NAME we have --with-NAME-icon.

@gcoladon you can add extra options here:

https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus/blob/ecaf5a621d9eeee29ea66c7b2952b50055662cf0/Formula/emacs-plus%4029.rb#L105-L111

[ingorichter]

@d12frosted I see now. The options need to be mapped from brew to the underlying emacs build script

[gcoladon]

@d12frosted @ingorichter I tried added the --with-dumping=unexec flag to the formula but I got the same error:
