Description of problem: launching emacs (emacs-28.1-2.fc36.x86_64) with emacs-ess installed (emacs-ess-18.10.2-6.fc36.noarch), the echo area (?) seems to hang on the message: Loading /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/siate-start.d/ess-init.el (source) cpu usage pegs, with top reporting many emacs processes before kswapd0 becomes top process. On my Lenovo X1 carbon the system then freezes requiring a hard power off, on my Lenovo X395 the volume widget dies then the shell crashes logging me out of the gui. Nothing like this happened before yesterday's upgrade of emacs to emacs-28.1-2.fc36.x86_64, downgrading emacs fixes the problem (downgrades to emacs-1:27.2-9.fc35.x86_64). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): emacs-28.1-2.fc36.x86_64 emacs-ess-18.10.2-6.fc36.noarch How reproducible: 2/2 computers I tried... Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
This generates a fork bomb. It's utterly unbelievable that this shipped in this state.
Now it looks like they did not provide a downgrade path for emacs 27 in Fedora 37.
It looks like this has maybe been fixed in 1:28.2+1-3, but https://groups.google.com/g/linux.debian.bugs.dist/c/QdejQ-bm-rU?pli=1
