Package: emacs
Version: 21.4a+1-3etch1
Severity: important

On a system with a NFS mounted /home I encountered the problem that
starting emacs -nw just stalled when the NFS server is down. Using
strace this line appeared just before the system stalled:

readlink("/etc/alternatives/emacs", "/usr/bin/emacs21-x", 100) = 18
stat("/usr/bin/lib-src", 0x7fff88d612c0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
stat("/usr/lib-src", 0x7fff88d612c0)    = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
readlink("/usr/bin/emacs21-x", 0x9248e0, 100) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid
argument)
stat("/usr/share/emacs/21.4/etc/GNU", 0x7fff88d612a0) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
stat("/home/skx/emacs21-21.4a+1/etc/GNU",                                       
                          

Since I'm starting emacs currently as root, I have no idea how Steve
Kemp's home dir comes into play. I also cross checked with the Ubuntu
(gutsy) version and and don't find anything there.

Anything I can help how to resolve this?
