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-$my_hostname'', it's work! Here is a minimal example : [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ 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 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat .Xdefaults-wok xterm*background: darkblue xterm*foreground: snow emacs*background: red [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat .xinitrc xterm& emacs& exec twm [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ startx # X is running, xterm background is darkblue, emacs background is white # next commands are executed in xterm [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ xrdb ~/.Xdefaults-wok [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ emacs # now emacs background is red -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages emacs22 depends on: ii emacs22-bin-common 22.2+2-3 The GNU Emacs editor's shared, arc ii libasound2 1.0.16-2 ALSA library ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgif4 4.1.6-5 library for GIF images (library) ii libice6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libncurses5 5.6+20080821-1 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpng12-0 1.2.27-1 PNG library - runtime ii libsm6 2:1.0.3-2 X11 Session Management library ii libtiff4 3.8.2-10 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libx11-6 2:1.1.4-2 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxmu6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxpm4 1:3.5.7-1 X11 pixmap library ii libxt6 1:1.0.5-3 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii xaw3dg 1.5+E-17 Xaw3d widget set ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 compression library - runtime emacs22 recommends no packages.
