Hello!

Please don't post multiple times the same message, I read the list but
real life (and real work) comes first.  About that, I'll be off for
the whole w/e.

Well, this is not what's in README.Debian [1].  Maybe it's not
clear, but you should start StumpWM *before* Emacs, otherwise the
swank port will be already taken.  Again, if it's not clear, please
submit a bug in the Debian BTS [2], preferentially with reportbug [3],
and I'll correct it.

If you want to start StumpWM from Emacs (which is not my advice),
fire-up SLIME and then give only the two last commands:

  * (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op 'stumpwm)
  * (stumpwm:stumpwm)

My advice is to start the swank in ~/.stumpwmrc.  Then once StumpWM
has started you can launch Emacs and connect to the running StumpWM
from SLIME with `slime-connect'.

I need to backport it and then it should be Etch-compliant ;-)

Thx, bye,
