Hi, |

|
| 3 |
this is the copy of an entry on the Planet: |

As expected [1], GNU Emacs 23 enters the so-called pretest stage. This |
| 6 |
means, defined numbered snapshots of the current development head are |
| 7 |
made, 23.0.90 being the first one (the row continues until .99, then |
| 8 |
followed by .990 if needed) released last weekend. All users may test |
| 9 |
those snapshots with |
| 10 |
emerge =emacs-cvs-23.0.90* |
| 11 |
The Emacs eselect module lets you choose Emacs 23 as your primary Emacs |
| 12 |
with |
| 13 |
eselect emacs set emacs-23 |
| 14 |
or you call it via /usr/bin/emacs-23. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Thus there is little danger to destroy your current setup, although you |
| 17 |
should think about rebuilding all your compiled Elisp files with the |
| 18 |
new Emacs. app-admin/emacs-updater can assist you here. Report all bugs |
| 19 |
found either to Emacs upstream directly (M-x report-emacs-bug) or to |
| 20 |
your beloved Gentoo Emacs team via our Bugzilla. |
