Package: emacsen-common Version: 3.0.4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Using `emacs -batch` is noisy, which means that it is easier to miss warnings and errors in `emacs -batch -f batch-byte-compile` `emacs -batch` on my system produces: ``` Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/00debian.el (source)...

Recommended fix: editing function `debian-run-directories` in /usr/share/emacsen-common/debian-startup.el Change `(load file nil)` to `(load file nil t)`. This will set the `nomessage` argument for function `load` and therefore silence these messages. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers focal-updates APT policy: (500, 'focal-updates'), (500, 'focal-security'), (500, 'focal'), (100, 'focal-backports') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.104-microsoft-standard (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: unable to detect -- no debconf information
