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! Package listing broke somehow on my installation - when I select Tools|Packages|List and Install, XEmacs seems to connect to the remote server (I tried a couple), but then it doesn't download anything... The last message in the minibuffer is something like Package-get database file `/anonymous＠ftp.eunet.ie:/mirrors/ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/packages/package-index.LATEST.gpg' not readable BTW it's a different server than in "Recent messages" below because it's from a different invocation of XEmacs - the message is too long for my minibuffer and it took me a few tries to read it... ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: Linux linux 2.4.0 #3 Sun Jan 28 20:49:46 GMT 2001 i686 unknown ./configure '--with-widgets=yes' XEmacs 21.5-b5 "beets" configured for `i686-pc-linux'.
