Package: tramp Version: 1:2.0.47-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hello,
Here are the steps to reproduce the problem: - launch Emacs - open a remote buffer with tramp (using default ssh method), i.e. /[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/fred/test (the file does not have to exist) - try to execute the shell command with "Esc ! date" from this buffer - I get the following error message in the *Messages* buffer: tramp-file-name-for-operation: unknown file I/O primitive: shell-command I found a message from Michael Albinus on emacs-pretest-bug mailing list with a patch for this problem (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-pretest-bug/2005-02/msg00138.html). The patch is the following: *** tramp.el.orig Sun Jan 16 11:51:45 2005 --- tramp.el Mon Feb 14 17:20:53 2005 *************** *** 4105,4113 **** (if (bufferp (nth 0 args)) (nth 0 args) (current-buffer)))) ; COMMAND ((member operation ! (list 'dired-call-process-command ; Emacs only ! 'shell ; Post Emacs 21.3 only 'process-file ; XEmacs only --- 4105,4113 ---- (if (bufferp (nth 0 args)) (nth 0 args) (current-buffer)))) ; COMMAND ((member operation ! (list 'dired-call-process ; Emacs only ! 'shell-command ; Post Emacs 21.3 only 'process-file ; XEmacs only This fixes the problem. The patch is supposed to go in the not-yet-released tramp 2.0.48. According to tramp CVS, it is also included in the latest upstream version (2.1.3).
