Package: emacs23-common Version: 23.3+1-1 Severity: minor File: gnus It's annoying that external attachment displayers are killed when they are, preventing me from viewing several attachments from various mail messages at once. Why kill them at all? Couldn't they be forked into some separate process that forks the displayer and cleans up its tmp file after that process exits naturally without the main emacs process needing to actually get rid of them before moving on to something else?
This is doubly annoying with external displayers like graphicsmagick that don't simply die when the ^C comes, so emacs gets trapped in a state of uselessness because it can't gracefully handle the external viewer not dying. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (600, 'stable'), (50, 'testing'), (40, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages emacs23-common depends on: ii dpkg 1.15.8.11 Debian package management system ii emacsen-common 1.4.22 Common facilities for all emacsen ii install-info 4.13a.dfsg.1-6 Manage installed documentation in emacs23-common recommends no packages.
