Also, update description of debuginfo and sources to match
Debian and Red Hat more accurately, and move this sad tale
from INSTALL to etc/PROBLEMS which is a better home for it.
* Makefile.in (emacs_srcdir, install-c-src):
* configure.ac (emacs_srcdir, --with-install-srcdir):
* src/epaths.in (PATH_EMACS_SOURCE):
* src/lread.c (emacs-source-directory):
Remove. All uses removed.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-function-C-source):
Do not worry about compressed C sources.
* src/lread.c: Do not include <dosname.h>.
Without this change, on typical GNU/Linux distributions
like Debian, the first button of ‘C-h f car RET’ does not work
because the source code for ‘car’ is not installed (Bug#37527).
Fix this by installing the (compressed) C source code alongside
the (compressed) Lisp source code that is already installed.
This adds about 3 MB (about 2%) to the size of the installed files
on my platform.
* Makefile.in (emacs_srcdir): New macro.
(epaths-force): Substitute PATH_EMACS_SOURCE.
(install-c-src): New rule, that installs a copy of the C source
code if emacs_srcdir says to.
(install-arch-indep): Depend on it.
* configure.ac (emacs_srcdir): New var.
Add support for --disable-install-srcdir.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-function-C-source-directory):
Look in emacs-source-directory first.
(find-function-C-source): Also look for gzipped source files.
* lisp/startup.el (normal-top-level):
Also recode emacs-source-directory.
* src/epaths.in (PATH_EMACS_SOURCE): New macro.
* src/lread.c: Include dosname.h, for IS_ABSOLUTE_FILE_NAME.
(syms_of_lread): New var emacs-source-directory.
The convention is that a file with Author: but not Maintainer:
means the author is a maintainer, which makes it confusing
when a file lists the same person as author and maintainer.
Avoid the confusion by removing the duplicate Maintainer: line.

find-function-search-for-symbol will reuse the existing buffer if
we've already opened the file that contains this symbol. However, if
the user has narrowed that buffer, we can't find definitions outside
the narrowed area.
Instead, search the whole file to find definitions, and teach the help
buttons to widen if necessary.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-function-search-for-symbol):
Search the whole buffer for the target symbol.
* lisp/help-mode.el: Help buttons now widen the target buffer, if
narrowing is in effect and the target position is not in that range.
Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-library-other-window)
(find-library-other-frame): New commands to complement the
existing 'find-library' command. (Bug#26712)
(read-library-name): New function to read a library name.
* etc/NEWS: Mention 'find-library-other-window' and
'find-library-other-frame'.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-library--from-load-history):
Rename from find-library--from-load-path. Check for `load-history'
entries with nil FILE-NAMEs. Simplify by not double
checking for suffixes and making use of `locate-file'.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-library):

* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-library--from-load-path):
New function to find a library from a load path (bug#5661).
(find-library-name): Use it.
There are so many combinations of inputs and possibly entries in
`load-history' that the code looks like an entry in a code obfuscation
contest. If anybody has a better implementation, please substitute.
But remember that the input given may be foo, foo.el, foo.elc, and the
entries in load-history may be foo.el, foo.elc and foo.el.gz, and we
want to return only foo.el and foo.el.gz. *phew*
* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-library):
* lisp/help-mode.el (help-function-def, help-variable-def):
Run `find-function-after-hook' inside the help-function of the
buttons (bug#22583).
This patch should not change behavior. It typically omits backslashes
where they are redundant (e.g., in the string literal "^\$").
In a few places, insert backslashes where they make regular
expressions clearer: e.g., replace "^\*" (equivalent to "^*") with
"^\\*", which has the same effect as a regular expression.
Also, use ‘\ %’ instead of ‘\%’ when avoiding confusion with SCCS IDs,
and similarly use ‘\ $’ instead of ‘\$’ when avoiding confusion with
RCS IDs, as that makes it clearer that the backslash is intended.
