bug#64500: More information

[William Lightner]

This may have been the obvious missed (by me):  a path issue.

I set up a script with the path referencing _only_ %EMACS_HOME% and the problem 
seems to have stopped.

Doh!

This should have occurred to me much, much earlier.

Thank you again for the prod!

The Cygwin64 version works for me under XWindows on Windows 10, too.   But 
every time I install 28.1 or 28.2 it generates this constant stream of pop-up 
errors until I kill it.  Even re-installed 27 does this now, and it worked fine 
before the upgrade to 28.

Unfortunately, I am pretty new to emacs so the error reporting thus far has 
been unhelpful.  I have determined that it appears to be failing during 
compilation of at least some scripts, which rings a very faint bell, as if I've 
seen this before and have just forgotten the resolution.  I haven't had time 
yet to pursue that thought, though.


Thanks for the reply & information.

William Lightner

Why does Emacs compile *.el files?  It isn't supposed to that when you start it.

Anyway, I'm sorry to say that I don't understand what happens in your case 
according to what you describe.  The GIO error message you show in the original 
report seem to point to librsvg, but that is all I can say.  The backtraces you 
post can only be interpreted on your system; see the node "Crashing" in the 
Emacs user manual for how to convert them to more useful ones if you have the 
necessary tools installed.

That's all I can say, sorry.  These Emacs versions work flawlessly for me, FWIW.
