Try a later XEmacs. Btw, I moved pgg/*.el into lisp/ (and pgg/*.texi into texi/) as all files with unclear copyright has been removed. So Oort now supports GPG/PGP5/PGP6 natively. Finally. You can remove the pgg/ directory now. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Is this some kind of official statement from the FSF that the files are okay, or will the files be removed in GNU Emacs releases? They still don't claim that they part of GNU Emacs. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

The FSF copyright clerk position is vacant so noone has answered my questions related to this, but the PGG author said he has signed papers for it. I have asked FSF though, and if it turns out they can't be used, they will of course be removed. I don't know what the Emacs maintainer think, maybe they can review all of Oort when a stable release is available? PGG isn't the only new stuff since the latest stable release, and things might change until a new stable version is released so I'm not sure it makes sense to ask now. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

On my debian system I don't have the timer binary, but I'm using XEmacs 21.4.8 instead. Could you try upgrading XEmacs and if that doesn't help report the backtrace to the debian people?
