emacs24-common-24.3-alt8 Usually, C-x C-f DOWN pulls the current buffer's filename into the minibuffer, as described in http://unix.stackexchange.com/a/9739/4319 . But with emacs24-common-24.3-alt8 and without emacs24-gnus-5.13-alt8 , one gets an errror, as printed in *Messages*: byte-code: Cannot open load file: auth-source $ rpm -qf /usr/share/emacs/24.3/lisp/gnus/auth-source.elc emacs24-gnus-5.13-alt8 $ I have no idea (yet) how this dependency gets into `find-file`.
The same problem with emacs-w3m: https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29611 .
