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 21.4 (patch 4) "Artificial Intelligence" [Lucid]
(i386-unknown-freebsd4.3) of Mon Jul 30 2001 on galibier
configured using `configure --with-prefix=no
--site-includes=/afs/informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/i386_fbsd32/include
--site-libraries=/afs/informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/i386_fbsd32/lib --with-menubars=lucid
--with-scrollbars=lucid --with-xpm --with-jpeg --with-png --with-dialogs=athena
--with-widgets=athena --mail-locking=file --pdump'
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
Hi,
when I type "xemacs -nw -f gnus" to start XEmacs within a xterm to
quickly check my mail it crashes. I'm not sure if this is XEmacs'
fault because it works without "-f gnus" option. However, my gnus (a
recent CVS version) works fine when I start XEmacs without "-nw".
This confuses me and I'm not sure if this the right place to ask what
I can about that. So please excuse me if I'm wrong and this is the
fault of gnus. ;-)
BTW I can reproduce the crash. The c backtrace some non-ASCII
characters which mail-mode converted to hexadecimal characters. I hope
that this will be no problem.
This is the Lisp backtrace:
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 /afs/wsi/i386_fbsd43/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:
