Package: ilisp Version: 5.12.0+cvs.2004.12.26-3 Severity: normal After installing the ‘ilisp’ package, the interactive prompt for ‘find-file’ is rejecting names of nonexistent files.
Steps to reproduce: * Install ‘ilisp’ and ‘emacs23’. * $ emacs -nw -eval '(call-interactively (function find-file))' * At the “Find file: ” prompt, type a filename that exists (e.g. ‘/etc/debian_version’) and press ‘RET’. The file content will open in a new buffer. * Exit Emacs. * $ emacs -nw -eval '(call-interactively (function find-file))' * At the “Find file: ” prompt, type a filename that does not exist on the filesystem (e.g. ‘/tmp/blah’) and press ‘RET’. The interactive prompt will behave as though ‘TAB’ had been pressed instead: the terminal bell rings, and the prompt remains at the filename and shows “(No match)”. * Exit Emacs. * $ sudo aptitude purge ilisp * $ emacs -nw -eval '(call-interactively (function find-file))' * At the “Find file: ” prompt, type a filename that does not exist on the filesystem (e.g. ‘/tmp/blah’) and press ‘RET’. The command succeeds, with a new empty buffer named ‘blah’ and the minibuffer shows “(New file)”. So, the problem is caused by ‘ilisp’ (or one of its dependencies) affecting Emacs; and the problem stops after removing ‘ilisp’. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (900, 'stable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-powerpc64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_AU.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ilisp depends on: ii common-lisp-controller 6.18 Common Lisp source and compiler ma ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.28 Debian configuration management sy ii dpkg 1.15.5.3 Debian package management system ii emacsen-common 1.4.19 Common facilities for all emacsen ii install-info 4.13a.dfsg.1-5 Manage installed documentation in Versions of packages ilisp recommends: ii ilisp-doc 5.12.0+cvs.2004.12.26-3 Documentation for ILISP package Versions of packages ilisp suggests: pn cltl <none> (no description available) ii emacs 23.1+1-4 The GNU Emacs editor (metapackage) ii emacs22-nox [emacs22] 22.3+1-1.1 The GNU Emacs editor (without X su ii emacs23 23.1+1-4 The GNU Emacs editor (with GTK+ us pn hyperspec <none> (no description available) -- debconf information: * ilisp/fsf-compliant: true -- \ “Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?” “I think so, | `\ Brain, but isn't a cucumber that small called a gherkin?” | _o__) —_Pinky and The Brain_ | Ben Finney <b...@benfinney.id.au>
