That's right. emacs-23.2-3 is current, and there is no experimental version. > The binary has the following checksum: > > $ cksum /usr/bin/emacs > 658187514 16254990 /usr/bin/emacs That's not actually the binary; it's a symlink that resolves to either /usr/bin/emacs-X11.exe or /usr/bin/emacs-nox.exe, depending on whether or not you've installed the emacs-X11 package. Is it possible that you upgraded the emacs package but are still using an old emacs-X11? If not, I don't know what the problem could be. If you can't figure it out, you could try giving the command cygcheck -svr > cygcheck.out and sending the resulting cygcheck.out as an attachment. Maybe I (or someone) will be able to spot something.
