                   Red Hat, Inc. Bug Fix Advisory

Synopsis:          New emacs packages are available for Red Hat Linux 7
Advisory ID:       RHBA-2000:091-04
Issue date:        2000-10-19
Updated on:        2000-10-20
Product:           Red Hat Linux
Keywords:          emacs emacs-nox python
Cross references:  N/A
---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Topic:

The emacs-nox package included in Red Hat Linux 7 needed the locale.alias
file from XFree86. Also, the initialization of python mode has been fixed.

2000-10-19: Instructions for dealing with changed site-start.el files added

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.0 - i386

3. Problem description:

The emacs-nox program tried to open /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/locale.alias,
which would fail if XFree86 wasn't installed. Also, python mode wasn't
properly initalized in the site-start.el file.

4. Solution:

For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filename]

where filename is the name of the RPM.

If the previous /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el had been changed,
you will end up with a /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el.rpmnew.
To apply the fix, do

cp /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el.rpmnew
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el

(all on the same line)

5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):

18548 - national (accented) characters are not displayed
18642 - emacs-nox requires XFree86 !
