Package: emacs21
Version: 21.4a+1-3etch1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/emacs21-x
A few seconds after deleting a few lines from a .cpp file, emacs
freezes. It does not react to keyboard and mouse input, and it does
not redraw its window. Using `top` from a terminal window shows that
emacs is consuming all available CPU cycles. It freezes every time I
delete these lines from this file.
Once I know the number assigned to this bug report, I will post the
URL to file problems.cpp, and the instructions to reproduce this
problem.

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.
