Thanks for looking into this so thoroughly In the meanwhile also lua-mode showed this behaviour for me. > That one I can replicate (or a related problem).

So there maybe a chance that, because quite some other modules are loaded for byte-compiling the remaining ones, that mmm-mode caused all the other hanging compilations? Let's check. Hence I removed mmm-mode for now from my system. Next "dpkg --configure --pending" broke at elpa-smex which you mentioned that you didn't install it either, due to an RC bug I guess. So I removed that one, too. Same for elpa-persp-projectile which failed, too. With these three changes, all emacs configured fine and all these erlpa packages compiled fine, too. Hence reassigning all other bugs to the one against mmm-mode (and reassigning that one from source package to binary package) and setting according "affects". (Bcc'ed control@bugs.d.o) Thanks again for your help tracking this down. P.S.: I assume "installing all elpa packages" didn't inlcude mmm-mode as it doesn't have the "elpa-" prefix. Hence it's clear why you didn't run into this even with that test. :-) Regards, Axel -- ,''`. | Axel Beckert , https://people.debian.org/~abe/ : :' : | Debian Developer, ftp.ch.debian.org Admin `. `' | 4096R: 2517 B724 C5F6 CA99 5329 6E61 2FF9 CD59 6126 16B5 `-| 1024D: F067 EA27 26B9 C3FC 1486 202E C09E 1D89 9593 0EDE

You're right that the order of compilation could be non-deterministic, I'll try a few more times re-bytecompiling everything. d

In a clean sid chroot: 1) install emacs-gtk (1:26.1+1-2) 2) install mmm-mode For me that reliably hangs during byte compilation.

Lots of elpa-packages installed, so chances are high that only a combination triggers this. Oh, and I ran into it on two different systems -- all on which I dist-upgraded Sid today. Both are amd64.

This one showed up on both machines. The order of compiling the modules looks a little bit random, so it seems to depend a lot on which affected module is compiled first... > For now I'm lowering the severity to help triage the emacs26 related > bugs. *sigh* Not appropriate for these bugs IMHO, but understandable until it's figured out which conditions need to be met.

Can you tell us anything more about the configuration where you see it? d
