Package: emacs-goodies-el Version: 30.2-1 Severity: important I'm not sure if this is a problem with emacs23 or emacs-gooodies-el. I recently switched from emacs-snapshot to emacs23.
Symptoms: With ido loaded, - C-x C-f opens a file, but doesn't switch to that buffer. - C-x C-f C-f (disabling ido temporarily) works as expected. - C-x b doesn't switch to the buffer. - C-x b C-b (disabling ido temporarily) works as expected. - C-x C-i is indent-rigidly in emacs-snapshot. ido appears to override this with ido-insert-buffer in emacs23. Diagnosis: Emacs23, Emacs-snaphshot and emacs-goodies-el all provide an ido implementation. Emacs-snapshot prefers its own implementation to emacs-goodies-el's, but Emacs23 does not: $ dlocate ido.el emacs-goodies-el: /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacs-goodies-el/ido.el emacs23-common: /usr/share/emacs/23.1/lisp/ido.elc emacs-snapshot-common: /usr/share/emacs/23.1.50/lisp/ido.elc $ emacs-snapshot --batch -Q -eval '(message (locate-library "ido"))' /usr/share/emacs/23.1.50/lisp/ido.elc $ emacs23 --batch -Q -eval '(message (locate-library "ido"))' /usr/share/emacs/23.1/site-lisp/emacs-goodies-el/ido.elc I believe this is probably a bug. Either Emacs23 is still not setting its load path correctly (and thus can't find its own ido.elc), or emacs-goodies-el does not yet handle '23 as a debian-emacs-flavor, as it does for 'emacs-snapshot. Emacs-goodies-el's ido definitely should not supersede emacs23's internal copy, because the latter is a much newer version (2001 vs. 2009). Note: this issue probably affects more package within emacs-goodies-el than just ido, I merely happened to notice it immediately with ido. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_AU.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages emacs-goodies-el depends on: ii bash 4.0-3 The GNU Bourne Again SHell ii emacs [emacsen] 23.1+1-2 The GNU Emacs editor (metapackage) ii emacs-snapshot-nox [emacsen 1:20090730-1 The GNU Emacs editor (without X su ii emacs23-nox [emacsen] 23.1+1-2 The GNU Emacs editor (without X su Versions of packages emacs-goodies-el recommends: pn dict <none> (no description available) pn perl-doc <none> (no description available) ii wget 1.11.4-4 retrieves files from the web emacs-goodies-el suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
