Sorry, I do not know. It would really be nice if somebody could look into this. > P.S: emacs-snapshot is not installable here, why ? emacs-snapshot is notorious for being uninstallable, because internal package dependencies are very strict, and as soon as a new snapshot is uploaded (which happens about once a week), and the binary-dependent parts have not been built for hurd-i386 (which happens when the autobuilder is down or does not get around doing so), it becomes uninstallable. I am sorry, but I cannot do much about this, I complained to the maintainer several times about this. Anyway, new emacs-snapshot packages for hurd-i386 are at http://incoming.debian.org and will hit ftp.debian.org and mirrors tonight. You can grab them from incoming, and install them manually with dpkg -i and then run apt-get -f install to have the corresponding emacs-snapshot-common package installed (or grab that from http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/e/emacs-snapshot ) Hope that helps, Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
