--text follows this line--
This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team,
not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
In XEmacs 21.1 (patch 12) "Channel Islands" [Lucid] (i386-redhat-linux)
of Thu Aug 24 2000 on porky.devel.redhat.com
configured using `configure i386-redhat-linux --prefix=/usr
--exec-prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --datadir=/usr/share
--libdir=/usr/lib --mandir=/usr/share/man/man1 --infodir=/usr/share/info

--with-scrollbars=lucid --with-dialogs=athena3d --with-database=no'
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
I was just moving the cursor when xemacs crashed
I include the terminal messages. If you want I can mail also the core
file (5MB).

terminal messages after crash:
fiascd{/fiascd/mcarlo/phos/zig/simphi/zanket}1013> fg
xemacs -l ibm-keys
Fatal error (11).
Your files have been auto-saved.
Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them.
If you have access to the PROBLEMS file that came with your
version of XEmacs, please check to see if your crash is described
there, as there may be a workaround available.
Otherwise, 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 /usr/bin/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.)
Lisp backtrace follows:

Buffer ordering and Dired?
21 years, 7 months
David Masterson
David Masterson
This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team,
not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
Please describe as succinctly as possible:
- What happened.
- What you thought should have happened.
- Precisely what you were doing at the time.
Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have.
================================================================
Dear Bug Team!
I haven't been able to get this to happen reliably, but it seems as
though buffers are getting reordered from time to time. Where I see
it most often is in the following steps:
* Enter dired and walk a directory tree.
* Using dired, edit a file.
* Make many changes to the file, save it, and kill the buffer.
Normally, after this, you would be back in the last dired buffer that
you were working on, but lately I seem to wind up back in the scratch
buffer (but not always). I usually have to rerun dired and walk the
directories again. The dired buffer(s) are still there, it just isn't
the top buffer anymore.

RE: Crash with "Page Setup" menu item
21 years, 7 months
Moore, Paul
Moore, Paul
... and a third time, from a different account.
The only reason I can see why the previous two attempts failed would
be that there's binary byte-code in the traceback. I stripped it and
replaced it with "..." this time, to see if that would work.
Apologies if this has actually turned up 3 times, but it's *definitely*
not in the xemacs-beta archives.
Paul.

Dear Bug Team!
When I select the "Page Setup" menu from XEmacs, I get a crash
(assertion failure). This is on both Windows 2000 and XP, with release
and debug builds of XEmacs 21.5.11.
The error details produced are shown below.
Apologies if this has been sent twice - I never saw any sign of the
first copy I sent, so I'm reposting...

Fatal error: assertion failed, file c:\data\xemacs\xemacs-21.5.11\src\console.c, line 253, abort()
Fatal error.
Your files have been auto-saved.
Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them.
Your version of XEmacs was distributed with a PROBLEMS file that may describe
your crash, and with luck a workaround. Please check it first, but do report
the crash anyway.
Please report this bug by invoking M-x report-emacs-bug, or by selecting
`Send Bug Report' from the Help menu. If that won't work, send ordinary
email to `crashes(a)xemacs.org'. *MAKE SURE* to include this entire output
from this crash, especially including the Lisp backtrace, as well as the
XEmacs configuration from M-x describe-installation (or equivalently, the
file `Installation' in the top of the build tree).
If you are fortunate enough to have some sort of debugging aid installed
on your system, for example Visual C++, and you can get a C stack backtrace,
*please* include it, as it will make our life far easier.
Lisp backtrace follows:

MUST-SUFFIX argument to `load'?
21 years, 7 months
Stephen J. Turnbull
Stephen J. Turnbull
GNU Emacs supports a fifth argument to load, MUST-SUFFIX, described as
If optional fifth arg MUST-SUFFIX is non-nil, insist on
the suffix `.elc' or `.el'; don't accept just FILE unless
it ends in one of those suffixes or includes a directory name.
What is this good for (besides breaking the Oort-Gnus build)?

Re: Fwd: [Bug: 21.1.14] XEmacs crashes when Gnus reads email with Face: header

XEmacs does crash when I visit a PNG file, but that doesn't tell me
we've got a faulty library. It's more likely to me that the glue code
in XEmacs between libpng and the app is at fault in that it's probably
not handling console-mode properly. I can visit a JPG file and it
enters image mode properly. Obviously no image is displayed, but it
doesn't crash.

Possibly. I'm currently running the up-to-date version of libpng
(1.2.5 with local modifications for FreeBSD) and that's what is linked
to my XEmacs binary.

SY> Any idea who that is? Maybe we can encourage them a bit. :-)
I cc'ed him on an earlier message, but according to the port's
makefile, he is Michael Elbel <me(a)freebsd.org> but this is roughly
four years old (last updated 24 Apr 1999).
SY> You obviously have reasons for not building your own XEmacs from

I'll do it as a last resort.

Change in expand-file-name in Emacs
21 years, 7 months
Kai Großjohann
Kai Großjohann
I just changed expand-file-name in Emacs to possibly invoke a file
handler after it's done. Consider a filename that looks like this:
/foo/bar/../../user＠host:/x/y
After processing the ".." parts, we arrive at
/user＠host:/x/y
which happens to be the right answer in this case, but it turns out
that the "/x/y" part might still contain stuff that requires the
file handler.
So I made it so that, in Emacs, expand-file-name, after doing the
normal non-file-handler thing, looks again whether it can find a
handler and invokes that.
Maybe you want to do this in XEmacs, too?
Apologies if this message was inappropriate.

Hello,
Norbert or anybody else, when will the pre-release become a real
release. I have been asked about the auctex package, which I maintain
and synchronized some weeks ago with the main auctex release.
Thanks
