tags 517839 + upstream thanks Hi Christoph! Cc:ing the slime-devel mailing list, since this is an upstream issue (already reported, read below).

Please always set LANG=C when you provide logs, since it is difficult to parse foreign languages ;-) I can reproduce the bug on a clean cowbuilder chroot: first, I created it for lenny, then installed slime together with xemacs21 and emacs22 (no errors). After that I modified apt's sources.list to point to testing: ===== root@gismo:/# apt-get update Get:1 http://cdn.debian.net testing Release.gpg [197B] Get:2 http://cdn.debian.net testing Release [71.6kB] Get:3 http://cdn.debian.net testing/main Packages [5533kB] Fetched 5604kB in 11s (497kB/s) Reading package lists...

Is not this a bug in XEmacs? I would say so and thus reassign the bug to xemacs21. Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
