#43399: emacs-app @24.3_2 hangs upon exit on Mavericks ------------------------------+------------------- Reporter: luke.woloszyn@… | Owner: hum@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: emacs-app | ------------------------------+------------------- Comment (by seb@…): I have the same issue, i.e. whenever a pop dialog is displayed there is no way to get out of it. (Emacs doesn't actually seem to be "hanging" - more like the event loop is stuck). The problem seems to be in x-popup-dialog, and is easily reproduced by: {{{ (x-popup-dialog t `("Are you sure?" ("Yes" . 'y) ("No" . 'n))) }}} The bug has been reported as a bug in emacs, see http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=17592 but since it cannot be reproduced there I suspect that there is something in our MacPorts patches that is causing this. I can try to selectively edit out the patches - but if anyone with more knowledge of emacs internals would like to help...? :-) PS. A workaround is to set the variable `use-dialog-box` to `nil` - which at least prevents invokations of `y-or-n-p` (and maybe other functions?) to display a dialog box when it normally think it should... -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43399#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
