People,

Windows machines with Telnet) originally from SCO UNIX and

(and not a bug in minicom) , because the same version used to work before
(that I needed to reinstall my system).
I cannot even type a single character on the terminal emulator.
When running under X11, I got the message:

I assume you mean on a new install of debian 2.2
This is a bug in base-config (my package). See bug #66963
I hope to fix this eventually.

It's a horrible idea.
All someone has to do then is crack your user account, and they can
trivially edit one of your dotfiles and the next time you su to root,
they have cracked

It's probably "emacs19" or "emacs20", or one of the xemacs varieties.
The simplest way to find out what package a particuler file belongs to

I know that when 2.2 installs in is emacs19. But of course you know that as
soon as you remove emacs RMS sends large men to your house to break your knees.
:) I like emacs but it is big.
