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! I build and run xemacs in place. I generally have a stable/gamma version and a beta version. In my ~/bin/ directory I have two links: xemacs -> stable/gamma, xemacs-beta -> beta. I have not been keeping up on the betas. While working on the xbm bug, I noticed that the xemacs-beta link did not work. I assumed I had just not updated it. However, it turns out it dosen't work. When I run xemacs-beta, I get the following error: temacs can only be run in -batch mode. This does not happen in 21.4. Anybody have any ideas? Cheers, Sean MacLennan http://xemacs.seanm.ca/ ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: Linux fillmore 2.4.18-3 #1 Thu Apr 18 07:32:41 EDT 2002 i686 unknown ./configure '--package-path=/home/xemacs/packages:~/.xemacs' '--without-gpm' XEmacs 21.4.8 "Honest Recruiter" configured for `i686-pc-linux'.
