(i also noticed that i the first attempt in each session to evoke the error does not demonstrate the problem. it only shows on the second and subsequent tries.) conversely, i am unable to reproduce the problem on any other hosts with much of my operating environment, but various instances of emacs 22 and 23 and different OS and gpg installations (including gentoo under vmware, rhel 4, fedora 1). in general there are too many variables to draw any conclusions, unfortunately, but it's important info. all this kinda explains why i haven't heard any complaints from any other allout encrypted-topics users, and why i may be unlikely to hear such. i still don't know what it is about my system that's causing the problem. -- ken http://myriadicity.net On Fri, Jun 27, 2008 at 10:01 AM, ken manheimer wrote: > [i've removed emacs-pretest-bug@ from the recipients - it was my > mistake to continue to cc that address in my correspondence about this > problem...] > > On Thu, Jun 26, 2008 at 12:32 PM, Chong Yidong wrote: > >>> i am not sure how to proceed with this problem. as demonstrated by >>> the pggprob.el script, i consistently get encryption and decryption >>> problems without the contrived delay in my pgg-gpg-process-region >>> patch.
