I emerged app-emacs/gnus, and all worked fine. After, I wanted to unmerge it, and, suprise, I restarted emacs and gnus worked like if I didn't unmerged nothing o_O . The files that portage said have been deleted are present. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge app-emacs/gnus; 2. See that it works; 3. Unmerge it. Actual Results: gnus works always. Expected Results: gnus shouldn't work after have been unmerged. zulon@zulon-pc ~ $ emerge --info Portage 2.1.3.9 (default-linux/x86/2007.0/desktop, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.5-r4, 2.6.22-gentoo-r5 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.22-gentoo-r5 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 2.80GHz Timestamp of tree: Sun, 16 Sep 2007 06:50:01 +0000 ccache version 2.4 [enabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p17 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.33-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.4.4-r4 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.9-r2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.17-r1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.16 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.24 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.21 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="ccache digest distlocks metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.free.fr/mirrors/ftp.gentoo.org/" LC_ALL="fr_FR.UTF-8" LINGUAS="fr" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages --filter=H_**/files/digest-*" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acl acpi alsa apache2 arts bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts cairo cdr cli cracklib crypt cups dbus dri dvd dvdr dvdread eds emacs emboss encode esd evo fam firefox fortran gdbm gif gpm gstreamer gtk hal iconv ipv6 isdnlog java jpeg kde kerberos ldap mad midi mikmod mp3 mpeg mudflap mysql ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl openmp oss pam pcre pdf perl php png pppd python qt3 qt3support qt4 quicktime readline reflection sdl session spell spl ssl svg symlink tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1 type1-fonts unicode vorbis w32codecs win32codecs x86 xml xorg xv zlib" ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="fr" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="fglrx" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Created attachment 131034 [details] portage says that when I unmerge
What Emacs version are you using? Some have Gnus included. Please provide the output of M-x emacs-version and what version of Gnus is displayed if you start it by M-x gnus.
Hum, really strange, now when I M-x gnus, it answer "Cannot open load file: gnus" Really strange bug :)
Sorry, I forgot to answer, I use emacs 22.1.1
Hum, in fact you were right, gnus is included in emacs. Shame on me.
(In reply to comment #5) > Hum, in fact you were right, gnus is included in emacs. Shame on me. No problem this makes closed-bug-count for Emacs team higher without much effort. :) Don't hesitate to file bugs if you think you find one, we really rely on users.
Why don't block emacs versions that contain gnus in the gnus ebuild ?
(In reply to comment #7) > Why don't block emacs versions that contain gnus in the gnus ebuild ? Because you can have several Emacs versions installed side-by-side and Gnus development goes on, Emacs itself is only synced with it from time to time. So it can be you don't get the newest Gnus with your newest Emacs, or you want to use an older Emacs and still have latest Gnus.
Okay :) I see
