Description Tetsuji Rai 2010-09-24 09:15:33 UTC
Title says it all.  tamago (Japanese handling module) doesn't convert kana to kanji on emacs-23.  But it works fine with emacs-22 (but re-emerge is required because of .elc's are incompatible between emacs-22 and 23.)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Thank you for your report.  As no CJK user resides in the Emacs team and there have been no complaints for several years about tamago not working. I wonder, if it is worth to keep a package that has not been updated since 2000 and whose download location has vanished (the FTP server is not reachable, though the homepage works).  Do you depend on the package or are there alternatives, maybe even not packaged for Gentoo?  If a new package needs to enter the tree we can arrange that of course.

Debian has ported the package to Emacs 23:

To tell the truth, I strongly depend on this one.

 As the Debian patches are quite extensive and not well documented I cannot determine what makes it work under Emacs 23 from a glance at the diff file.  Have to check their version control system.

Maybe opensuse src.rpm could work, but this needs to be fixed as emacs-22 is already hardmasked for a long time
