I urpme'd emacs, then urpmi'd emacs. Still does not work.
Then I looked in /usr/bin:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] dpel]$ ll /usr/bin/emacs*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Apr 30 2002 /usr/bin/emacs ->
/etc/alternatives/emacs*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4289588 Aug 18 2002 /usr/bin/emacs-21.2*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4420660 Jan 29 15:04
/usr/bin/emacs-21.2.93*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7284 Jan 29 15:04 /usr/bin/emacsclient
and /etc/alternatives/emacs is pointing to /usr/bin/emacs-21.2.
So I guess that when I updated from 9.0 to 9.1 Beta 3 the old emacs binary was
not removed.
But I don't think it's the normal behavior to not update the
/etc/alternative/emacs link when you remove and then reinstall emacs.
Comments?
