Description danc 2024-07-11 22:25:36 UTC 
After a recent update, the emacs-lucid executable was missing.
In it's place /usr/bin contained emacs-29.4-lucid.
I worked around the problem by installing a symlink from this executable to
emacs-lucid.

Packages installed by this update included:
emacs.x86_64         1:29.4-5.fc40   updates
emacs-common.x86_64  1:29.4-5.fc40   updates
emacs-filesystem.noarch        1:29.4-5.fc40   updates
emacs-gtk+x11.x86_64 1:29.4-5.fc40   updates
emacs-lucid.x86_64   1:29.4-5.fc40   updates

I am running Fedora 40 xfce spin with kernel 6.9.7-200.fc40.x86_64 #1 SMP
PREEMPT_DYNAMIC on an HP Pavilion Desktop TP01-2165z with AMD Ryzen 5 5600G
with Radeon Graphics CPU.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Type emacs-lucid at the command line
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
 Message to terminal bash: emacs-lucid: command not found

Expected Results:  
emacs-lucid should launch

I think this would also work as a workaround:

sudo dnf reinstall emacs-lucid
