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? -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.23.12-storage Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages emacs depends on: ii emacs21 21.4a+1-3etch1 The GNU Emacs editor emacs recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
