Package: emacs24-common
Version: 24.5+1-7
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Recently emacsclient stopped working in unstable.
* What led up to the situation?
Upgrading emacs24.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
tmarble@cerise 127 :) emacsclient /tmp/foo.txt
Waiting for Emacs...
*ERROR*: Invalid function: (\` ((\, file) _))
tmarble@cerise 128 :( emacsclient --no-wait --eval '(find-file "/tmp/foo.txt")'
*ERROR*: Invalid function: (\` ((\, file) _))
tmarble@cerise 129 :(
* What was the outcome of this action?
The filename passed as an argument was not visited in emacs (as emacsclient
crashed).
It appears that emacsclient fails to eval any elisp expression.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected the file /tmp/foo.txt to be visited in a new emacs buffer.
