Role Variables

Emacs

If you are building Emacs from source, you need to set the following variables:

BUILD_FROM_SRC: true
emacs_version: 25.3
emacs_ftp_url: http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/emacs
emacs_sha256: "sha256:f72c6a1b48b6fbaca2b991eed801964a208a2f8686c70940013db26cd37983c9"
emacs_build_dir: "/tmp/emacs-{{emacs_version}}"
emacs_install_loc: /usr/local

If you are not building from source, Emacs will be installed using ppa:kelleyk/emacs.

The SHA256 is a checksum used to ensure the download is correct.
