Package: emacs23
Version: 23.2+1-2
Severity: normal
When starting emacs with ssh -X <remoteSystem> emacs
it produces the following error message:
GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server;
some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for
ORBit,
or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash.
See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information.
(Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session:
/usr/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally
without any error message)
If startet as a remote client, emacs should not try to connect to a
configuration server.
X client,X server and desktop session being on different systems is integral
part of X protokol
and daily working practise.
Debian in general and emcas in detail should not give up this feature (being
network transparent.)
It is unclear, at least for me, if this missing gconf-server results in missing
functionality.
Kind regards
Juergen
