Package: emacs21-common
Version: 21.3+1-7
Severity: normal
File: gnus
When I open a large (9000 unread mails) folder in GNUS, it jams emacs in
some way or other. The most obvious symptoms are that emacs starts taking
100% of CPU time, the buffer window becomes blank, and it beeps a hell of
a lot. Specifically, any mouse activity in the window produces a beep.
This is very reproducible.
cheers, Rich.

Hello,
All of these bugs are assigned to emacs21 which has been removed from
the current versions of Debian several years ago, and thus the bugs
are orphan and nobody is paying attention to them anymore. I'm just
doing some cleanup with the intent to reassign valids bug later to
current packages, but I am not involved in the maintenance of these
packages in any way.
I am closing all of these bugs who are marked as unreproducible or
fixed-upstream or similar, sometimes for many many years and without
any input since then; and also others that don't seem relevant anymore
(e.g. failing to install). I'm trying to verify that they're indeed
properly tagged and addressed when possible.
If you feel that some issue related or included in the bug report is
not properly addressed, please reopen, reassign or report a new bug
against Emacs packages currently present in the archives.
Cheers.
