You are the seventh message in a thread. Did you read the other six, and particularly mine from yesterday saying I fixed this in a new build 18.10-1-2. Before I toss that at the Debian build servers (and Michael for his Ubuntu builds), could anyone who has an issue please test it? Thes ess and elpa-ess deb files are here for now: http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/tmp/ess/ It's just a directory, not an apt repo, so you need to download eg http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/tmp/ess/elpa-ess_18.10-1-2_all.deb and then install it. These "work for me" but then I also did not have that recent issue. Testing feedback (on list or off-list) would be much appreciated. Also, you did not tell us which version you used. There could be three at least (not knowing what other remixing Mint may use) 18.10-1 18.10-1-1 18.10-1-2 Of these only the last one would contain the fix to the issue you describe.
