bug#61299: 30.0.50; error when trying to installing via package-vc-selected-packages list

[dalanicolai]

Ah sorry, indeed I had missed your earlier message.

Installing the package works perfectly fine now. Thanks for that,

this functionality is great!

Maybe I can also quickly drop the following question here:

To test the function/new commit, I have rebuilt Emacs.

But I don't understand the 'proper' way to do that.

AFAIK (I implied from the INSTALL file), when building with

the same -configure flags, then we can just pull the latest

version and then do 'make'.

However, when I do that, then I get all kinds of warnings that

my src files are newer than the byte-compiled files.

How do you deal with this? Should I just continue building Emacs

and then 're-byte-compile' when using it. Or should I just remove

all .elc files from the lisp directory first? Or do you have any

other advice?

Thanks again for your help!
