Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : emacs-snapshot Version : 22.whatever.would.be.fine Upstream Author : RMS & Co. * URL : http://www.fsf.org/... * License : GPL Programming Lang: lisp Description : emacs that is not very old
Debian needs to revive their emacs-snapshot package. A once every three months snapshot would be fine. Six months OK too. You see, many users using the now disappeared emacs-snapshot package have already long ago got hooked, tailoring their .emacs files for emacs 22, and would go bananas if forced to rip all that up to go back to emacs 21. I am using the "daring" sid version of Debian, but it seems like "dusty" "woody". If it were that simple for lesser users such as myself to just roll-our-own, snap-in-place, then long ago the greater users would have not stopped packaging it or whatever. _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
