Hello fellow orgers,
I have been using the emacs-snapshot package for a long time, since the era
of Ubuntu 7.04, and it worked fine and I got all the latest versions of
emacs with it. Now, I just installed 9.10 from scratch, and when I search
for emacs on apt-cache, I get the following relevant packages:
* emacs23
* emacs-snapshot-gtk
The emacs-version for emacs23 returns:
"GNU Emacs 23.1.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.2) of 2009-10-15
on yellow, modified by Debian"
For emacs-snapshot-gtk, I get:
"GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.0) of
2009-09-27 on crested, modified by Debian"
Which one would be the most recent version (or better package to use)?
Thanks in advance,
Marcelo.

I had some problems using emacs23 in Karmic. Several errors loading my
.emacs and a non functional emacs-lisp menu. Using the ppa from
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-elisp/+archive/ppa everything works as
expected using the same .emacs.
Ian.

What is the difference between the emacs23 and emacs-snapshot-gtk packages?

This fixes the missing menus for me:
#!/bin/bash
# edit
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1
emacsclient --alternate-editor="" -c $@

Thanks. There seem to be a couple of bug reports with
similar problems to mine for Karmic. I'll give your fix
a try.
So it looks as though it's a GTK not an Emacs bug.
Best wishes,
Ian.
