Emacs isn’t found in $PATH after 3.19 upgrade #2324

Open oaguy1 opened 5 months ago

oaguy1 commented 5 months ago

In both bash and ash, I am unable to launch emacs after performing the alpine 3.19 upgrade. It doesn’t crash, it simply cannot find it in the path. I even tried removing and reinstalling emacs, but to no avail. Screenshot of the issue below.

Do you have /usr/bin/emacs on your system?

oaguy1 commented 5 months ago

I do not

saagarjha commented 5 months ago

DId you have emacs installed before this update? Did it work before then?

oaguy1 commented 5 months ago

I did have it installed before and it worked as expected.

Same thing here. After apk add emacs withou errors the system can’t find emacs

I hit the same problem on my ipad today, with Alpine v3.19.1. Then I tried "apk add emacs-nox" and now /usr/bin/emacs exists. Of course, when I try to run emacs, I get "Fatal error 31: Bad system call", so emacs still doesn't work, but for different reasons. I guess I'll go back to Alpine v3.18.6.

This is an issue with alpine, not ish.

I got that problem using an alpine:3.19 container, and I found this issue first when looking up the error, so I'm writing this for the next victim :laughing:

It can be reproduced with docker:

> echo 'apk add emacs; emacs --version' |  docker run -i --rm alpine:3.19
fetch https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.19/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gzfetch https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.19/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz
(1/1) Installing emacs (29.1-r3)
Executing busybox-1.36.1-r15.trigger
OK: 24 MiB in 16 packages
/bin/sh: emacs: not found

And this shows that there isn't even a file named emacs:

> echo 'apk add emacs file; find / -name emacs -exec file \{\} \; 2>/dev/null' |  docker run -i --rm alpine:3.19
fetch https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.19/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz

/var/games/emacs: directory
/usr/lib/emacs: directory
/usr/share/emacs: directory

I ended up using the package emacs-nox instead.
