I have Xemacs 21.4.3, Linux Mandrake 8.0 x86 and latest efs 1.25. I choose a download site in "Tools->Packages->Add Download Site" and then I choose "Tools->Packages->List and Install" Then I get the following messages in reverse order: ------------------------------------- End of file or stream: #<killed buffer> Retrieving /anonymous＠ftp.xemacs.org:/pub/xemacs/beta/experimental/packages/package-index.LATEST...done Retrieving /anonymous＠ftp.xemacs.org:/pub/xemacs/beta/experimental/packages/package-index.LATEST...
