Expected behavior

Emacs can start successfully.

Actual behavior

I receive the below error message when starting Emacs 29.0.50.

Symbol's value as variable is void: kill-region

Steps to reproduce the problem

  • Build the latest version of Emacs, i.e 29.0.50
  • Open the new Emacs then we will see the above error message

The problem will go away if we

  • Disable this line (crux-with-region-or-line kill-region) in the prelude-editor.el
  • Do not load prelude-web.el

Environment & Version information

Emacs version

GNU Emacs 29.0.50 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.30, cairo version 1.16.0) of 2021-12-20

Operating system

Gentoo Linux.

I can also reproduce this issue on Centos 7.8 and macOS.

I also received this error when native comp was trying to compile the prelude code with emacs 28. I found that adding

(require 'crux)

just before

(crux-with-region-or-line kill-region)

solved the issue.
