Re: emacs-nox
Quoth Sven Joachim [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Sebastian, Have you run apt-get update recently? Of course. If yes, you should use a different mirror. FWIW, I already have libncurses5 5.6+20071013-1, installed on October 17 (I run unstable). Hmm. Interesting. I suspect that if I allow dist-upgrade to remove emacs22-nox I won't be able to simply install it again, which would be a disaster! It won't be that fatal, since you could reinstall it at a later point, but that is certainly not what you want. Indeed not. Should I file a bug report, or just wait until a version of libncurses5 is available that staisfies emacs22-nox. First make sure to run apt-get update. If that does not cure the problem, file a bug against the mirrors pseudopackage that your mirror is horribly outdated. This I will do. Thanks for the information Sven.

Hello, Does anyone know where I can find the package for emacs-nox20.7-1? I looked on the main site for debian but I couldn't find it. bp _ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bruce Park [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2002-10-13 18:45:55 -0400]: Does anyone know where I can find the package for emacs-nox20.7-1? I looked on the main site for debian but I couldn't find it. To the best of my knowledge that naming convention is a Redhat naming scheme. I don't think Debian offers a stripped down emacs without dependencies on the X libraries. You would probably need to build it yourself without those dependencies if that is your need. But here is how I would go about trying to find information about this topic. If you search for 'emacs' on the debian site with a distribution set to 'any' then you will see a list of emacs packages. All of those are available to install. Go there and do that and learn what packages are already available. http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages Emacs has its own policy page. For more information I would look there. This should give background as to the rationale behind things. This may or may not cover the topic you care about. But if it does then you should know about it. http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/debian-emacs-policy I would check the bug tracking system for any bugs against emacs in this area. If someone considers this a deficiency then there might be a bug logged against it with a thread of email discussion it attached to the bug report. You asked about emacs20 so I list that but I personally have upgraded to and use emacs21 these days. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=emacs20 And last I would search the debian-emacsen archives for references to this since I would expect that it would have been discussed there previously. It is a low volume list so that should not take long. http://lists.debian.org/debian-emacsen/ If you think this is a serious deficiency then you can log a report in the BTS. That is one way to influence the direction of packages. And, of course, discussion here is always good. HTH Bob msg06703/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

The maintainer is planning to build non-x versions in the future, but there are some upstream issues w.r.t. the automatic doc generation that needs to be fixed first. You asked about emacs20 so I list that but I personally have upgraded to and use emacs21 these days. Especially on the console, since Emacs 21 does syntax highlighting there. -- Booting... /vmemacs.el -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
