Package: emacs24 Version: 24.3+1-2+b1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Newly install debian system, upgraded from stable branch to testing. When start emacs24, it shows error message: "Error while loading 50dictionaries-common: Symbol's value as variable is void: debian-aspell-only-dictionary-alist". I found the file caused this error "/var/cache/dictionaries-common/emacsen-ispell-dicts.el". It seems the variables(debian-aspell-only-dictionary-alist, debian-ispell-only-dictionary-alist) required in this file were not defined. Tried commentting all the code in this file, emacs24 started ok. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.13-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_IE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages emacs24 depends on: ii emacs24-bin-common 24.3+1-2+b1 ii gconf-service 3.2.6-1 ii libasound2 1.0.27.2-3 ii libatk1.0-0 2.10.0-2 ii libc6 2.18-4 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.12.16-2 ii libcairo2 1.12.16-2 ii libdbus-1-3 1.8.0-2 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-2 ii libfreetype6 2.5.2-1 ii libgconf-2-4 3.2.6-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.30.6-1 ii libgif4 4.1.6-11 ii libglib2.0-0 2.38.2-5 ii libgnutls26 2.12.23-13 ii libgomp1 4.8.2-16 ii libgpm2 1.20.4-6.1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.10.7-1 ii libice6 2:1.0.8-2 ii libjpeg8 8d-2 ii libm17n-0 1.6.4-2 ii libmagickcore5 8:6.7.7.10+dfsg-1 ii libmagickwand5 8:6.7.7.10+dfsg-1 ii libotf0 0.9.13-1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.2-2 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.2-2 ii libpng12-0 1.2.50-1 ii librsvg2-2 2.40.0-1 ii libselinux1 2.2.2-1 ii libsm6 2:1.2.1-2 ii libtiff5 4.0.3-8 ii libtinfo5 5.9+20140118-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-1 ii libxft2 2.3.1-2 ii libxml2 2.9.1+dfsg1-3 ii libxpm4 1:3.5.10-1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.8-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-1 emacs24 recommends no packages.
