emacs bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated emacs packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
GNU Emacs is a powerful, customizable, self-documenting text editor. It provides
special code editing features, a scripting language (elisp), and the capability
to read email and news.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Prior to this update, Emacs incorrectly displayed Japanese documents using JIS
X 0213:2004 (JIS2004) compliant fonts, even though other parts of the system
prefer and use older fonts. This update lowers the priority of JIS X 0213:2004
to ensure the consistent use of fonts in the system. (BZ#612385)
- Previously, the emacs packages required the aspell and hunspell spell checkers
to be installed. Since the use of a spell checker is completely optional, this
update removes aspell and hunspell from the list of dependencies, so that Emacs
can now be installed without these packages. (BZ#613759)
All users of emacs are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
these bugs.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
