Description Tom Tromey 2009-08-18 16:04:28 UTC 
Description of problem:

Emacs 23 was recently pushed into F11.
This broke w3m.  When I try to use w3m from Emacs, for instance
to read HTML email in gnus, I get this error:

byte-code: Emacs-w3m of this version does not support Emacs 23; try the development version

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

opsy. rpm -q w3m-el emacs
w3m-el-1.4.4-8.fc11.noarch
emacs-23.1-1.fc11.i586
Comment 1 Akira TAGOH 2009-08-19 02:14:32 UTC 
Sigh. blame the emacs maintainer. usually a sort of this breakage doesn't has to be happened in updates...

Anyway, I'm considering to make a snapshot of CVS since upstream doesn't make any releases recently.
Comment 2 Akira TAGOH 2009-08-19 05:05:14 UTC 
Will be fixed in 1.4.367-0.1.20090819cvs.fc12 and .fc11.
