Package: vm
Followup-For: Bug #1110127
Dear Maintainer,
I use emacs and VM as my mail client. Terribly old-fashioned but I've got used
to being able to edit messages for archival...
I upgraded my laptop from bookworm to trixie on 16th October. VM crashed as
soon as I tried to load mail.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Tried to revert VM alone to an older version, but that caused other problems.
Finally reverted all emacs packages to those from bullseye stable.
* What was the outcome of this action?
That got it working. I probably should have tried to go back less far: I did
not try taking the whole of emacs back to the 'oldstable' archive, which would
have been less disruptive and may well have worked.
