I recently encountered an (infloop) bug in org-element, and the tip to get a useful backtrace from the apparently frozen emacs is: [0. when on GNU/Linux, call 'top' to see if emacs uses 100pc CPU] 1. emacs -Q 2. M-x load-library org-element.el 3. do what you do to make emacs freeze 4. call on the cmd-line ,---- | kill -s usr2 4352 `---- (get the PID with 'ps -e | grep emacs') or, equivalently (?) ,---- | pkill --signal usr2 emacs `---- 5. study/copy/paste/send *Backtrace* buffer from (not frozen anymore) Emacs -- cheers, Thorsten
