Hello

The packages python, grep, cpp and compile don't appear in
package--builtins because the "Package" header keyword isn't defined in
the respective libraries.  I think it would make sense for these to be
treated as separate packages.

But all four do appear in package--builtins?

  (The variable is now called package--builtin-versions.)

python does indeed appear in the value of package--builtin-versions.
Maybe that was already the case when I originally reported otherwise.
While python.el still does not define the "Package" header keyword, it
does define "Version".  And that is enough for it to be considered a
package (see autoload-generate-file-autoloads).

However grep, cpp and compile still do not appear there.

I don't understand this report.

emacs-24.3 -Q -l finder-inf

(assq 'python package--builtins)
  -> (python . [(0 24 2) nil "Python's flying circus support for Emacs"])

(assq 'grep package--builtins)
  -> (grep . [nil nil "run `grep' and display the results"])

(assq 'cpp package--builtins)
  -> (cpp . [nil nil "highlight or hide text according to cpp conditionals"])

(assq 'compile package--builtins)
  -> (compile . [nil nil "run compiler as inferior of Emacs, parse error messages"])


And the same in current trunk.

Either I am deeply confused about something, or these entries somehow
make it onto that list on you machine but not on mine.  I have just
tried again with the current trunk and there are no entries for these
packages:

  (assq 'python package--builtins) -> nil
  (assq 'grep package--builtins) -> nil
  (assq 'cpp package--builtins) -> nil
  (assq 'compile package--builtins) -> nil

I made sure package--builtins had been initialized:

  package--builtins -> ((5x5 . [nil nil "simple little puzzle game"]) ...)

I then made sure I had loaded the correct version of finder-inf.el.
That's what I am using:

  /usr/local/share/emacs/24.3.50/lisp/finder-inf.el

Then I opened that file and looked for the entries:

  M-x find-file RET /usr/local/share/emacs/24.3.50/lisp/finder-inf.el RET
  M-x occur RET \_<\(python\|grep\|cpp\|compile\)\_> RET
    => Searched 1 buffer; no matches for `\_<\(python\|grep\|cpp\|compile\)\_>'
  M-x occur RET \(python\|grep\|cpp\|compile\) RET
    =>
    3 matches for "\(python\|grep\|cpp\|compile\)" in buffer: finder-inf.el

Interesting.

On a Debian testing machine, I have those entries in finder-inf in every
tree. On a RHEL6 machine, I don't. They are in the 24.3 source tarfile.

Could be a bug in the build process.
