XEmacs 21.2 "Apollo" (mips-sgi-irix6.5, Mule) crash in realpath.c 25 years, 10 months

Remek Trzaska

I had been writing a message in gnus, and suddenly: Core was generated by `xemacs-21.2-b6'. Program terminated with signal 6, Abort. Reading symbols from /usr/lib32/libXm.so.1...done. <snip> Reading symbols from /usr/lib32/libgen.so...done. #0 0xfa40e80 in _kill () at realpath.c:191 I'm keeping the core file around for a while.

I've been playing around with b62 and I can't update packages using Manage Pakcages->Using custom->update. I get the error - "cannot open load-file package-get-custom". The ui stuff works fine.

XEmacs 21.0.60 core dumps on FreeBSD 2.2.6 25 years, 10 months

Richard Coleman

After getting a core dump with 21.2.8, I thought I would try 21.0.60 and see if I had better luck. I also get a core dump with this version. I don't think it's my machine, since I just built 20.4 as well, and it works fine. I've attached a lisp backtrace, a gdb backtrace, and the Installation file. -- Richard Coleman coleman(a)math.gatech.edu Fatal error: assertion failed, file window.h, line 245, RECORD_TYPEP (_obj, lrecord_window) || MARKED_RECORD_P (_obj) Fatal error (6). Your files have been auto-saved. Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them. Please report this bug by running the send-pr script included with XEmacs, or selecting `Send Bug Report' from the help menu. As a last resort send ordinary email to `crashes(a)xemacs.org'. *MAKE SURE* to include the information in the command M-x describe-installation. If at all possible, *please* try to obtain a C stack backtrace; it will help us immensely in determining what went wrong. To do this, locate the core file that was produced as a result of this crash (it's usually called `core' and is located in the directory in which you started the editor, or maybe in your home directory), and type gdb /home/rcoleman/xemacs/xemacs-21.0.60/src/xemacs core then type `where' when the debugger prompt comes up. (If you don't have GDB on your system, you might have DBX, or XDB, or SDB. A similar procedure should work for all of these. Ask your system administrator if you need more help.)

making MINIMAL-TAGBITS the default 25 years, 10 months

Richard Coleman

I thought the plan was to eventually make MINIMAL-TAGBITS on by default. If so, then maybe we should go ahead and make this the default for 21.2.x, so any remaining bugs can be shaken out. -- Richard Coleman coleman(a)math.gatech.edu

XEmacs 21.0.61 "Poitou61" is released 25 years, 10 months

SL Baur

Available from the usual places: ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/beta/xemacs-21.0/ CVS sources are at http://cvs.xemacs.org/ Installable Lisp packages are in: ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/packages Thanks to Andy Piper for patch integration. This is pretty much it. Whatever is still broken will pretty much need to get fixed in 21.1. I cannot reproduce the lack of display-time crash reported by Richard Coleman. I don't know whether that's good or bad. I plan on making a final set of tarballs next weekend some time as there is some documentation that needs tweaking. I'm fairly busy getting ready to leave for Japan so I doubt I'll be able to do much. Maybe I can just not sleep for a week ... to 21.0 "Poitou61" -- mswindows modeline crash fix from Jonathan Harris -- picon glyph fix from Gunnar Evermann -- ldap fixes from Oscar Figueiredo -- mswindows accelerator fix from Jonathan Harris -- package fixes from Jan Vroonhof -- configure fixes from Martin Buchholz -- mule xemacs crash fixed -- sound doc cleanup from Charles Waldman -- package admin fixes under mswindows from Charles Waldman -- sound.el name change sync from Andy Piper
