    Peter> In the file /usr/share/X11/app-defaults/Emacs there is this line:

<sigh> That value is the default anyway for emacs-26, so thereʼs no
need to set it, especially for the system packaged version of emacs
which has complete control over what features to enable.

Thanks, glad you got it working.
