new emacs-no-X11 crashes on org files

Hi there

I'm used to launch my emacs with no window and hitted crashes on org files. Whenever I try to launch one

Code:

Fatal error 6: Aborted
Backtrace:

It works with X...

We've seen this before: https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...p?t=4175731971

It still happens to me. I don't use org files, so I don't care, but, of course, it should be solved.

Do you have to run in org mode? I just renamed an HTML file to bummer.org, then linked it to bummer.txt. emacs crashes on bummer.org, works on bummer.txt

I tried it on an Ubuntu machine, which doesn't have the problem.

Thank you for the heads-up.

I do not use current since 15.0 and for now could go with X11. Still have to give a go with self-compiled package.

It's not just the no-X11 build, the --with-X build also fails if you run it as emacs -nw /tmp/boom.org

If you simplify the slackbuild to only build the X11 version the problem goes away, so I think it might have something to do with this double-build thing that Pat does.

I'll attach the modified X11 only slackbuild I used for those who need it.

Also tried the simplified slackbuild with "--without-x" and no boom either.

The new emacs this morning works on .org files for me. I noticed because the new emacs links to libgccjit, a library I hadn't installed.

How do you see that ?

When I do a ldd(1) (and objdump) on /usr/bin/emacs-29.3-with-x11, /usr/bin/emacs-29.3-no-x11 and /usr/bin/emacsclient that lib does not show up for me.

I do not use org mode so I have no way to test. Someday I should play with it

I only install stuff I need. I had never installed libgccjit. After this morning's upgrades, emacs wouldn't run, complained that there was no libgccjit. ldd returns a dependency for me.

You don't need to use org mode. Just try to open a file with a .org extension (can be any kind of file) or, if you're an emacs expert, switch to org mode.
