I'm not sure yet what the root cause is, but I suspect elisp-bug-hunter would be closer from "regular" emacs invocation if it did offer the option to override $HOME instead of using -q -l
Yes, I think you're right. But I think it would probably be harder to make it cross-plaform. Ultimately, bug-hunter is never going to be able to catch every single corner case. It's primarily designed as an aid for newer users with the most common issues.
I'm facing a bug which happens only if the configuration is loaded the regular way, but not with
emacs -q -l ~/.emacs.d/init.el
. The details are not really important, but this specific property makesbug-hunter-init-file
unusable, since even loading the full file with-q -l init.el
doesn't trigger the bug.The following screenshot shows the difference between the two invocations. Left is
emacs -q -l ~/.emacs.d/init.el temp/test.org
, right isemacs temp/test.org
.I'm not sure yet what the root cause is, but I suspect elisp-bug-hunter would be closer from "regular" emacs invocation if it did offer the option to override $HOME instead of using
-q -l
thanks!
