Package: emacs22
Version: 22.2+2-3
Severity: normal

Hi!

Not sure it is a emacs bug.

I've configured X resources via a ~/.Xdefault-$my_hostname. Just after 
``startx'',
if I start a xterm or for example editres, X resources in 
~/.Xdefault-$my_hostname
work like I want. This is not true for emacs who ignores setting. If I do a
``xrdb ~/.Xdefault-$my_hostname'', it's work!

Here is a minimal example :

test@wok:~$ ls -Al
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 3 test test 4096 2008-08-24 21:19 .emacs.d
-rw------- 1 test test    0 2008-08-24 21:19 .Xauthority
-rw-r--r-- 1 test test   72 2008-08-24 21:17 .Xdefaults-wok
-rw-r--r-- 1 test test   23 2008-08-24 21:18 .xinitrc
test@wok:~$ cat .Xdefaults-wok
xterm*background: darkblue
xterm*foreground: snow
emacs*background: red
test@wok:~$ cat .xinitrc
xterm&
emacs&
exec twm
test@wok:~$ startx
# X is running, xterm background is darkblue, emacs background is white
# next commands are executed in xterm
test@wok:~$ xrdb ~/.Xdefaults-wok
test@wok:~$ emacs
# now emacs background is red

This bug has been reported against an ancient version of emacs (emacs21,
emacs22) that is no longer supported. It is assumed to be fixed (or no
longer relevant) in newer releases and therefore I'm closing this report
now. If the problem is still reproducible in the current version
(emacs24), feel free to provide more information and reopen this bug report.

Andreas
