[solved] Emacs crashes

Hi, since the update today I'm experiencing strange emacs crashes...

I'm afraid the log is not very informative...

Fatal error 11: Segmentation fault
Backtrace:

emacs[0x4e9aae]

Maybe a better debug log: http://pastie.org/10101800

Is there anyone having also these problems?

NOTE: I closed the issue and mark it as "solved" since it seems to be OK since the update to emacs 24.5...

Re: [solved] Emacs crashes

Since "the update". Emacs wasn't updated. Check /var/log/pacman.log

Re: [solved] Emacs crashes

I know of course that emacs was not updated, but there was an update ob gtk3, glib2, etc. and I'm wondering whether this has to do with crashes I never experienced with emacs.

Re: [solved] Emacs crashes

Well, emacs is linked against gtk3, but the update did not make emacs crash here. Maybe running a tool like lddd from the devtools package ore findbrokenpkgs from AUR give further insights.

Re: [solved] Emacs crashes

Thanks for your answer. I close the thread, because I did not have crashes anymore in the last 2 days. I don't know what it was, but it seems it's OK again.

Re: [solved] Emacs crashes

If you don't mind use [Solved] or similar instead of [closed]. Closed is what appears next to the title if a moderator actually closes the topic.

I wouldn't mind, but it is not really solved. Today it happened again... I'm analyzing whether some (emacs) package I installed could be the reason for these crashes...

Re: [solved] Emacs crashes

Does rebuilding emacs using ABS help?

Re: [solved] Emacs crashes

Thanks for your question. No, it did not work. I installed 24.4.3 and it is crashing again. It happens (but not always) when I use emacsclient in a console...
