Package: emacs-snapshot Version: 1:20061022-1 Severity: wishlist Hello,
I just switched from emacs-snapshot-x to emacs-snapshot-gtk and noticed that I actually had to update two alternatives, one for emacs and one for emacs-snapshot: $ /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --display emacs-snapshot emacs-snapshot - status is manual. link currently points to /usr/bin/emacs-snapshot-gtk /usr/bin/emacs-snapshot-x - priority 0 /usr/bin/emacs-snapshot-gtk - priority 0 Current `best' version is /usr/bin/emacs-snapshot-x. $ /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --display emacs emacs - status is manual. link currently points to /usr/bin/emacs-snapshot-gtk /usr/bin/emacs21 - priority 24 slave emacs.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/emacs.1emacs21.gz /usr/bin/emacs21-x - priority 24 slave emacs.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/emacs.1emacs21.gz /usr/bin/emacs-snapshot-x - priority 23 slave emacs.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/emacs.1emacs-snapshot.gz /usr/bin/emacs-snapshot-gtk - priority 23 slave emacs.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/emacs.1emacs-snapshot.gz Current `best' version is /usr/bin/emacs21. It would be good to follow the emacs21 example and register the symlink /usr/bin/emacs-snapshot as an emacs alternative; then people switching from one emacs-snapshot flavor to another can spare one call to update-alternatives. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18.1 Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages emacs-snapshot depends on: ii emacs-snapshot-bin-common 1:20061022-1 The GNU Emacs editor's shared, arc ii libasound2 1.0.13-1 ALSA library ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libice6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-13 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libncurses5 5.5-4 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-5.2 PNG library - runtime ii libsm6 1:1.0.1-3 X11 Session Management library ii libtiff4 3.8.2-6 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libungif4g 4.1.4-4 shared library for GIF images ii libx11-6 2:1.0.0-9 X11 client-side library ii libxmu6 1:1.0.2-2 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxpm4 1:3.5.5-2 X11 pixmap library ii libxt6 1:1.0.2-2 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii xaw3dg 1.5+E-14 Xaw3d widget set emacs-snapshot recommends no packages.
