Subject: best gnu/linux distro for emacs
Date: Sat, 23 Mar 2013 03:09:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAF-1L2RNyYEfVS81QnQNGiLkxbuJmfLQUNQrs7Co1zGtrmfNFQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Many distros do not provide emacs out of the box.  Something of a slap in
the face, and unexpected.  And annoying.  Various distros handle emacs
differently.

I like the way Gentoo handles emacs, and I may reinstall gentoo in the
future.  Arch worked farily well.  I would prefer to just leave it alone,
pretty much, and tolerate compiling it oneself.

For now, what is the "best" distribution of GNU/Linux for running emacs?
