I've just retried rmadison on my console of choice, "lxterminal", and
rmadison is working perfectly. Its possible that my multiple reboots
yesterday cleared the problem, so could you please close my bug report?
Thanks, and sorry for the noise, in future, I'll try a reboot to see if
it closes any problem!

Thanks
Sharon.

No, it seems that my email proggie, "gnus", doesn't pick up the bug
report address from your email. I do a "very wide reply and yank", which
should just pick up every email address associated with the email, but it
only picks up yours. Like it has done with this one, so I've hunted for
the bug email address which I've included.

Is it possible that I have a corrupted font which is causing the
mish-mash? Do you know the font that "rmadison" uses please?

Thanks

Is it possible that I have a corrupted font which is causing the
mish-mash? Do you know the font that "rmadison" uses please?


I guess it's possible. rmadison won't be using any particular font of 
its own accord though, it's just writing output to the console.

Adam

An issue with a single script in the package does not render the whole 
package unusable (even for an "important" script).

This is on a fresh install of jessie yesterday, 64bit. I've tried 
upgrading to
the version of devscripts in testing, but it makes no difference, still 
the

same mishmash.

I was hoping to see the output showing what version of emacs24 in all

Package: devscripts

Dear Maintainer,

When trying to use "rmadison emacs24" I get this -

rmadison emacs24

This is on a fresh install of jessie yesterday, 64bit. I've tried upgrading to
the version of devscripts in testing, but it makes no difference, still the
same mishmash.

I was hoping to see the output showing what version of emacs24 in all debian
repos.

Thanks
Sharon.
