Bugzilla Bug 38795

usata, 

I'm a bit unfamiliar with the emacs-w3m, w3m ebuilds these days.  Attached is a screen shot of the problem.  The command to reproduce that is "emerge --no-init-file -f w3m".

Installed:

emacs-w3m-1.3.80
w3m-0.4.2-r6
w3mmee-0.3.2_p24-r3
emacs (cvs from a few days ago, but the problem has peristed before that).

Created an attachment (id=24119) [details]

hum, what is w3m-type after you load emacs-w3m? It should not bew3m-m17n but
w3m-m17n. option ext_halfdump is set if w3m-typeis w3m-m17n, so i suppose there
is something wrong with this.

                  emacs-w3m is an interface program of w3m, works on Emacs.


(setq "/usr/bin/w3m-m17n")

looks like we should some how have emacs-w3m use w3m-m17n?  It seems like thats the only one which works.

i should mention, i have to install w3m-m17n manually to try it out (it wasn't
a dep)

I don't know why emacs-w3m insists on ext_halfdump=1 when you use
w3mmee. It shouldn't require ext_halfdump unless w3m-type is w3m-m17n.

As for w3m, w3m-0.4.2-r6 needs to be compiled with USE="unicode" if 
you have USE="cjk" (I suppose USE="-cjk -unicode" is also fine).
w3m-m17n doesn't have unicode USE flag to tell --disable-unicode
explicitly, so it always gets compiled with unicode support or not at
all. (and because of that w3m-m17n doesn't have this problem)

Today I realised emacs-w3m-1.3.80 works fine on both w3m and w3m-m17n
(I only have to type 'http://' part to render pages correctly),
so I'll change emacs-w3m's DEPEND back to virtual/w3m shortly.

All of w3m, w3m-m17n and w3mmee will work fine. (Fixed all of them
in addition to emacs-w3m)
