Just noticed that emacs-nox, which comes from the same source

emacs-23.3-2.mga2.src.rpm

but compiled without X support works fine. So that may still be related to interaction with X and emacs, even in -nw mode.

Cheers,
Chris.

Comment 7 Olivier Blin 2011-11-11 13:21:56 CET

That was a nasty bug exposed by glib >= 2.31
There was an infinite loop in text mode select() when built with gtk support.

Fixed in emacs-23.3-3.mga2

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED

Hi there,
just to say that 23.3-3 has not yet landed on the mirrors. Any issues with the bs or that's normal?

Cheers,
Chris.

Looks like the package had not been submitted properly, I've just sent it again.
Sorry about that.
