GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.0) |
summary: on starting emacs with desktop enabled, the first saved
buffer opens, and I get the local-variables prompt, then
> Wrong type argument: arrayp, nil
and no further buffers open. How to fix?
details:
For several months I have been running GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 via ubuntu
karmic package=emacs-snapshot-gtk:
$ lsb_release -ds
Ubuntu 9.10
$ uname -rv
2.6.31-22-generic #60-Ubuntu SMP Thu May 27 02:41:03 UTC 2010
$ emacs-snapshot-gtk --version
GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1
which I run via
$ emacs-snapshot-gtk --debug-init
For many years, I have been running emacs with desktop. Until this
afternoon, desktop was working. This afternoon, I added a new
file/buffer to my desktop and closed emacs. When I reopened emacs, I
got the usual local-variables prompt
> Please type y, n, or !, or C-v to scroll:
and typed '!' as usual. Unusually, I got the response
> Wrong type argument: arrayp, nil
and no further buffers opened. (And I did not get kicked into the
debugger, the message was only displayed in the minibuffer.) I
immediately `kill -9`ed emacs and copied the desktop file to a backup.
I tried copy/modifying the desktop file to remove the first, second,
and first 2 buffers from the list, but no change: first buffer loads,
then no more. How to fix or debug?
TIA, Tom Roche <Tom_Roche@pobox.com>
