Thanks! The freezing using a graphical emacs made me change to a
terminal emacs. The link seems relevant to me (I first tried to move to
the athena build [also because with GTK build there is some long lasting
bug when one runs emacs in its daemon mode], but no matter what, emacs
froze randomly at the very point the linked page discusses. So I will
try the quick fix (a hack, I would say); still, he only changes an
x-selection-timeout from 5000 ms to 10 ms, while my emacs froze (when it
did) apparently forever (ie, not just for 5 s).


Regarding the pinentry-emacs I now have yet another problem. 
When the pinentry prompt appears in one emacs frame (on one computer,
say at work), as it happens for me when the validity of the passphrase
has timed out, it blocks any other emacs frame. Ie, when I run
emacsclient -c from another machine, it freezes.

I tried a few things to no avail...


Thanks for any help.


Best regards
Ruda
