Does this also happen with an empty/nonexistent ~/.emacs file?

I wonder if we should switch the logic for gtk and Xaw3d flags:
Xaw3d? ( x11-libs/Xaw3d )
!Xaw3d? (
gtk? ( x11-libs/gtk+:2 )
!gtk? ( motif? ( x11-libs/openmotif ) )
)
That is, prefer Lucid/Athena over Gimp Toolkit in case the user has both USE flags set. And maybe also print a warning with USE=gtk.

I still would like to prefer Gtk+ toolkit, the warning should be included though. Gnome team, we have a failure with GNU Emacs due to a bug in Gtk+, which is reported but unfixed upstream, to sum it up. I think this bug was reported to us exactly the same way years ago and it got closed with resolution "upstream" since none of us were using emacs. If there are more patches to add to the ebuild, that can be done, but failing that, there is little we can do to help. I think it was bug #272201. Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks similar. (In reply to comment #20) > I think it was bug #272201. Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks similar. No, that was an issue related to fonts, therefore different from this one. Problem still exists with emacs-vcs (bzr trunk as of today, revision 104859) and gtk+-3.0.11.

I have to note that I haven't updated my x86 system for a few months and amd64 is fresh install. |
After quitting emacsclient -c with C-x C-c, another run refuse to start with out restarting /etc/init.d/emacs.${user}. On the other hand, running emacs --daemon failed because it detects existing process. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. /etc/init.d/emacs.${user} start 2. emacsclient -c ... do something, then quit 3. emacsclient -c gives: Actual Results: output "Waiting for Emacs...", then falls back to prompt without a new frame open. To fix must restart /etc/init.d/emacs.${user} restart. Expected Results: Open a new frame.
