Subject: bug#25221: Packages manager not working in WSL emacs-25 build
Date: Sat, 15 Apr 2017 00:32:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <818375e4-0390-683a-6f26-7491aa3962c0@alice.it> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <ddeac3b0-3c33-f914-e1a0-ffef19bf2556@alice.it>
Just for the record..
After the upgrade to Win10 Creators Update (clean Reset from
Anniversary). I reinstalled WSL that now is Ubuntu 16.04 and so Emacs.
The package installed is 24.5.1.
While with previous installation (WSL-Ubuntu 14.04, Emacs-24.3), Emacs
worked fine, also with the package manager, now it shows the same issues
I had with Emacs-25 branch or Emacs-master.. It seems I can't
install/upgrade Elpa/Melpa packages any more...
The only good news is that it seems that Emacs can be built without the
"echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space" workaround..
Any suggestion about how to upgrade Elpa/Melpa packages? I am using
~/.emacs.d from previous installation and M-x package-list-packages
shows that there are packages to be upgraded but trying to type "Ux"
breaks Emacs.
TIA,
Angelo.
