Package: emacs21
Version: 21.3+1-5
Severity: normal
Tags: sid l10n
This is what i do:
An environment variable:
$ echo $LC_CTYPE
en_US.UTF-8
Start emacs in X11
$ emacs &
this opens a window with emacs
There is a "-u" in the modeline. This also can be done with the command
set-language-environment and UTF-8.
the mode line starts with:
-u:** *scratch*
When i try to activate the input method with C-\, there is a beep and
this message pops up in the echo area:
activate-input-method: Can't activate input method `rfc1345'
the input method does not change

Hello,
Thanks for your interest in improving Debian, and sorry that the bugs
were not fully resolved or closed 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 fixed-upstream years ago, with no recent
input, and are supposed to be fixed in emacs22 at the latest.
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.
