error using pui-list-packages to install/upgrade packages

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 i select a package to install/upgrade with RET, i press "x y" to proceed, the tar is downloaded ok, something is done (i'd say the package is installed ok, AFAICT) and at this point xemacs signals an error Signaling: (invalid-operation "Selecting deleted or non-existent buffer") package-admin-check-manifest(#<killed buffer> "/usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/") package-admin-add-binary-package("/tmp/gb/prog-modes-1.59-pkg.tar.gz" "/usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/") byte-code("..."
