Subject: customize-saved and emacs -Q
Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2007 20:47:16 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87tznsh8e3.fsf@escher.local.home> (raw)
Starting Emacs 22.1 built from vanilla sources with -Q and typing `M-x
customize-saved' returns the message "No saved user options". But
starting the Emacs 22.1 binary that comes with openSUSE 10.3 with -Q and
typing `M-x customize-saved' returns a *Customized Saved* buffer
containing Delete Selection Mode SAVED and set to `off' (which is in fact
its default value) and Scroll Bar Mode SAVED and set to `right' (its
default value is `left'). Here is the build configuration used by
openSUSE:
Windowing system distributor `The X.Org Foundation', version
11.0.70200000 configured using `configure '--with-gcc' '--with-pop'
'--without-hesiod' '--with-kerberos' '--with-kerberos5' '--with-leim'
'--with-xim' '--with-system-malloc' '--prefix=/usr'
'--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--mandir=/usr/share/man'
'--localstatedir=/var' '--sharedstatedir=/var/lib'
'--libexecdir=/usr/lib' '--with-x' '--with-sound' '--with-xpm'
'--with-jpeg' '--with-tiff' '--with-gif' '--with-png'
'--with-x-toolkit=gtk' '--x-includes=/usr/include'
'--x-libraries=/usr/lib:/usr/share/X11' '--build=i586-suse-linux-gnu'
'build_alias=i586-suse-linux-gnu' 'CC=gcc' 'CFLAGS=-O2 -march=i586
-mtune=i686 -fmessage-length=0 -Wall -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
-fstack-protector -g -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -D_GNU_SOURCE
-Wno-pointer-sign -Wno-unused-variable -Wno-unused-label
-DSYSTEM_PURESIZE_EXTRA=55000 -DSITELOAD_PURESIZE_EXTRA=10000 '
'LDFLAGS=''
Put another way, in openSUSE 10.3 with emacs -Q, (get 'scroll-bar-mode
'saved-value) evaluates to ((quote right)) and (get
'delete-selection-mode 'saved-value) evaluated to (nil), while in
vanilla Emacs both of these sexps evaluate to nil. Does anyone know how
openSUSE did this or how this can be done in principle?
