Re: The future of XEmacs

Stephen J. Turnbull wrote: Ah, okay. No site-start code. I checked for changes to load-path in my Emacs lisp library and found one place, but it's in my .emacs. Since I already have an init.el, I don't think this is the problem. (And commenting out the load-path hack in .emacs didn't make the startup messages go away.) Nope. No. I tried clicking on the "Load init files" button after starting with -vanilla, and I got an error about being unable to load a library from my "kupfer-env" XEmacs package. In that case, load-path only refers to the packages from the sumo (/usr/new/share/.../lisp/pkg1, /usr/new/share/.../lisp/pkg2, etc). No references to anything in my .xemacs directory. Hmm. I tried renaming ~/.xemacs/site-packages and ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages. That gets me an error on a regular (non-vanilla) startup (as above, because it couldn't find a library in the kupfer-env package). I put back just .xemacs/site-packages/lisp/kupfer-env and got a clean startup. I then put back .xemacs/site-packages/lisp/mail-lib and got the "already loaded" error. (It's a slightly hacked version of the standard mail-lib.) Okay, let's take kupfer-env out of the picture. I renamed .xemacs/init.el and .emacs, and I deleted .xemacs/site-packages/lisp/kupfer-env. And I renamed .xemacs/custom.el for good measure. But on startup I still get the "already loaded" error message for mail-lib, with both 21.4 and 21.5. So I think this is pointing at a problem in the package startup code. mike _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
