Package: emacs Version: 19.31-2 I just upgraded from 19.29-3, and it left me with the following /etc/site-start.el: (load "/usr/lib/emacs/19.29/lisp/jka-compr.elc") (if (file-exists-p "/usr/lib/emacs/site-lisp/w3-init.el") (load "w3-init")) (autoload 'lout-mode "lout-mode" "Mode for editing Lout source" t) (setq auto-mode-alist (append '(("\\.lout$" . lout-mode)) auto-mode-alist)) (require 'vm-init)
This caused Emacs to fail to start because of the changed version number in the pathname for jka-compr. IMO this entry should not have used an absolute pathname, rather, it should rely on the load-path. If it did need an absolute pathname the Emacs postinst should have fixed it up. Ian.
