Package: emacs21
Version: 21.1-7
Severity: normal
While fighting with the symptoms of Bug 144806 I discovered that I can
reliably crash emecs21 by setting the coding system for the X selection
to emacs-mule and then paste an รค (a umlaut) from a xterm into emacs.
The last thing emacs does is displaying "mark set".
The stack trace looks funny:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Hello,
Thanks for your interest in improving Debian, and sorry that the bugs
were not fully resolved in due time.
emacs21 packages have been removed from testing in 2009 [1], not
present even in the current stable. Consequently, these bugs are now
orphan (without maintainer assigned) so they probably will not be
attended/noticed further.
[1] http://packages.qa.debian.org/e/emacs21.html
The bugs deemed valid are going to be verified and reassigned, but the
current bugs that I'm closing now are very ancient (more than 10 years
sometimes) and marked as unreproducible years ago. Please comment if
you want think that some of the raised questions are still pending and
need to be addressed differently (e.g., reassigned to other packages,
etc.).
Cheers.
