Summary | 0002599: Emacs start hangs and dies after upgrade since last month | ||||||
Description |
CSW Emacs was working fine on my Solaris 10/x86 workstation last month. I recently did a pkg-get upgrade, required to get new openssl lib for another program, and now emacs doesn\'t work anymore. When I launch it, it hangs for ~30s and then dies with this error message: Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size Truss doesn\'t reveal anything obvious. I\'m not sure how to find more information about the problem, but would be happy to debug it on anyone\'s instructions. |

This is too old to reproduce (2 releases since then...); if it can be reproduced by the reporter I'll try to fix. |

Hi, I'm still having this very same issue. I tried upgrading but "No worries... you already have version 22.1 of emacs" Which two new versions are you referring to? |
(0006149) pfelecan (manager) 2009-05-19 08:28 |
The last version is 22.3. However, in the "stable" release the old 22.1 is still the last available package. I recommend that you use the "unstable" release of OpenCSW. |

if trying with the unstable release of 23.1 the same issue is observed, I recommend to use the -q option for a start test. |

I'm afraid it's not an issue with my config. I still get the same error with -q option (aka --no-init-file): Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size Also, I'm only showing v22.1 as the latest available through unstable: # /opt/csw/bin/pkgutil -c emacs --2009-08-24 10:32:06-- http://blastwave.network.com/csw/unstable/i386/5.10/catalog [^] package installed catalog CSWemacs 22.1 SAME Please advise. |

First of all: you're looking at Blastwave and here are at OpenCSW,,, Consequently I propose that you point your pkg-get, through the /opt/csw/etc/pkg-get.conf toward a mirror of the OpenCSW project. Update your packages such as the last revision of Emacs is installed on your system. After that, test and give me a feedback, |

Sorry I didn't realize there was a difference between blastwave and opencsw servers... I pointed to http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/csw/current [^] and it upgraded all my packages. Nothing was working for a while as fontconfig blew up and corrupted my fonts Installing fontconfig - A library for configuring and customizing font access. as <CSWfconfig> ## Executing postinstall script. fc-cache is running now to build font information caches this may take up to several minutes on slow workstations Segmentation Fault - core dumped 4509 Segmentation Fault - core dumped After some time to clean up I seem to be back in business and emacs works now thanks. |

using the OpenCSW mirror fixes this issue |
