I ran some other commands in the terminal before getting a copy of the file that you wanted to see (/var/log/apt/term.log). Now, that file only seems to contain information about the recent commands. I was learning about the difference between apt and aptitude. I ran these commands: $ sudo aptitude keep-all $ sudo aptitude update -----W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo aptitude upgrade
In the process of discovering that I had probably overwritten the information that you wanted I noticed this file: /var/log/apt/term.log.1.gz I managed to get a copy of it out of that directory and unzipped. The end of the file appears to have the information that you want about xemacs. Or do you need that entire file? size is 296KB, appears to go back to July 16 2010 when I finally got enough disk space away from windows to install Linux with the partition size that I wanted. I better upload the whole file, you might need to know what else I have installed. Some further experimenting with xemacs has not revealed any problems yet, it still appears to function correctly. I am no longer concerned about this bug. If it is your procedure to try and discover the problem anyway, I will help if I can, but otherwise you can just let it go. Thanks for the emacs23 suggestion. I installed ultraedit for the 30 day trial and when you follow the link on the nag screen the price is $10 less than otherwise (ubuntu users only? not sure). I think I will do that, since I already know how to use UE pretty well. The "find in files" works the way that I need. ** Attachment added: "term.log.1" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/53021316/term.log.1 -- package xemacs21 21.4.22-2ubuntu1 - Install ended with this message: Error exit status 2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/610659 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
