Re: 21.2 PROBLEMS: Mandrake Linux, Meta on Alt, getaddrinfo() blocks 24 years

While even thinking about this still hurst, it be worth it making an note on our billion item todo list that a solution to this might be to implement a proper generalization of the Mandrake patch. i.e. some form of keyboard-modifier-translation-table. Then Mandrake would only need a setting in their default site-start.el Jan

info auto generate directory works?? 24 years

Neal D. Becker

Value: "21.1 (patch 12) \"Channel Islands\" XEmacs Lucid" I customized Auto Generate Directory to "always", but I don't think it worked. After restarting xemacs, C-h i still seems to be using the "dir" file. I see for example: [...] Programming: * Octave:(octave). Interactive language for numerical computations. * Wget: (wget). The non-interactive network downloader. * Wget: (wget). The non-interactive network downloader. Info-directory-list is Value: ("/usr/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/info/" "/usr/share/info" "/usr/share/info")

xemacs slow when network down 24 years, 1 month

Sean MacLennan

I have been trying to track down why xemacs beta takes forever to start when my network is down when XEmacs 21.1 worked just fine. It turns out that `unix_canonicalize_host_name' has been changed to call `getaddrinfo' instead of the old call to `gethostbyname' (via `get_internet_address'). What is the advantage of 'getaddrinfo' over 'gethostbyname'? For people like me with not-completely-reliable dsl modems, it makes xemacs beta unusable under X. An easy way to test this is too change all your nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf to a bogus ip. Sean

Re: Find architecture-specific directories correctly 24 years, 1 month

Jerry James

I'm moving this to xemacs-beta since I can't read xemacs-review and there are a couple of issues here I'd like to discuss.

I also am building in a different directory, but my module-load-path is nil at startup. I submitted the patch based on 21.2.37, but I just tried again with 21.2.38 and got the same result. Why do you have directories in your module-load-path but I don't? Note that all but the first one are wrong, anyway, since the installed XEmacs shouldn't be pointing into the source tree. > Installed XEmacs after patched: > ("/opt/local/lib/xemacs/site-modules/" > "/opt/local/lib/xemacs-21.2-b37/i686-pc-linux/" > "/opt/local/lib/xemacs-21.2-b37/i686-pc-linux/include/" > "/opt/local/lib/xemacs-21.2-b37/i686-pc-linux/modules/") Yes, the second and third directories are bogus, but the first and fourth are right. I have a slightly revised patch that fixes this. > Run-in-place XEmacs before patched (build inside source directory): > ("/opt/local/lib/xemacs/site-modules/" > "/work/yoshiki/orig/xemacs/modules/" > "/work/yoshiki/orig/xemacs/modules/base64/" > "/work/yoshiki/orig/xemacs/modules/ldap/" > "/work/yoshiki/orig/xemacs/modules/sample/" > "/work/yoshiki/orig/xemacs/modules/zlib/") Again, my XEmacs has module-load-path as nil in this case.

FWIW, the following patch (against vanilla XEmacs 21.2.38 sources, ignoring my previous patch) cleared up the two bogus directories for me: --- lisp/find-paths.el.ORIG Wed Sep 13 10:57:43 2000 +++ lisp/find-paths.el Tue Dec 19 23:11:02 2000 ＠＠ -235,14 +235,15 ＠＠ (or ;; from more to less specific (paths-find-version-directory roots - (concat base system-configuration) + (paths-construct-path + (list system-configuration base)) envvar default) (paths-find-version-directory roots base - envvar) + envvar default) (paths-find-version-directory roots system-configuration - envvar))) + envvar default))) (defun construct-emacs-version-name () "Construct the raw XEmacs version number." -- Jerry James

Ack! Password file lost 24 years, 1 month

Jareth Hein

Greetings all, and I apologize for my long absense. I'm still here, although rather strapped for time, so I'm not really reading up on the lists... I've a small problem... I lost the password file for the bugtracking system. I could get it from a backup tape, but I figured I'd take this oportunity to ask for everyone who wants to be involved with the Jitterbug database to please email me with your desired password and username. Thanks, and sorry for the inconvienience. -- Jareth Hein <jareth(a)camelot.co.jp> <jareth(a)xemacs.org>

Sourceforge CVS server public key changed 24 years, 1 month

Martin Buchholz

There is more work to be done here, but in the meantime, if you do a CVS commit to cvs.xemacs.sourceforge.net, you will likely need to replace the host key in ~/.ssh/known_hosts with this entry, or ssh will complain loudly. cvs.xemacs.sourceforge.net 1024 35 135459351736321163060158393531468444816302234590973809357152436576350207072252287835707057476174967415296163010396506793977298682224754860632880044268868000037878105011492026587585650803634691714922798574463393683597106735308595648792534668214949718972181353995125678208863789676171889408918130030154710172303
