(Aside: If Scientific Linux [sic] distributes such an old Emacs,
what other problems may be hiding in the distro? =A0All of the main
distros keep up with Emacs releases with a lag of only a couple weeks.
Many provide a "bleeding edge" beta package as well. =A0The evide= nce is
strong that Emacs is both a valuable package and one that is easy to
keep up to date. =A0If Scientific Linux doesn't do so ....)


SL is more or = less a copy of Red Hat where the latest release (6.4) includes Emacs 23.1, = so that's one major distro that doesn't keep up with Emacs releases= like that. But it also shows that the original poster has an old version o= f the distro, so nothing to worry about.
