Subject: bug#17272: 24.4.50; obsolete messages hides warning on startup
Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2014 21:42:32 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <21325.39352.164247.185693@capuchin.co.uk> (raw)
If you start emacs with the following loaded file (emacs -Q -l .emacs.test)
;;; .emacs.test
(require 'longlines)
(desktop-save-mode 1)
(desktop-read "/home/robert") ;; $HOME....
When it starts you see the message
Package longlines is obsolete!
But - if the .emacs.desktop is locked the message:
Warning: desktop file appears to be in use by PID 6464.
Using it may cause conflicts. Use it anyway? (y or n)
is hiding 'behind' the obsolete message and you don't see it until you
press a key - the emacs startup appears to have stopped but there's no
visual clue as to what it is waiting for.
