xemacs on El Capitan — at Initial Version

Description

Dear Ports Community,

I am a daily Xemacs user and rely on Mac Ports to install it. After upgrading to El Capitan, I would like to report three issues:

(A) Currently Ports supports only the recent (but unstable) beta version of Xemacs 21.5.16, which causes problems on my end. If someone could put back the last stable version 21.4.22 then I could keeping editing my C++ files without frequent crashes.

(B) A simpler request: There is a problem with the installation of the package libraries. As is, the link in /opt/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-21.5.16 links to itself indefinitely. I fixed it by hand with

/opt/local/lib/xemacs>sudo rm xemacs-21.5.16 /opt/local/lib>sudo rm -rf xemacs /opt/local/lib>sudo ln -s xemacs-21.5.16 xemacs

(C) Currently I cannot have Xemacs and ImageMagick installed at the same time. Maybe this could be fixed also:

sudo port install imagemagick Password: ---> Computing dependencies for ImageMagick Error: Unable to execute port: Can't install ctags because conflicting ports are active: xemacs

Thanks a lot,

Burkhard
