2013-05-02 07:53:49 Kimikazu description This problem happened just after the upgrade to Ubuntu 13.04. When trying to open a file in a directory under control of Mercurial, i.e. a directory which has .hg directory, emacs stops in its staring process. When this symptom occurs, in the minibuffer, it says: Loading vc-hg...done And the following is dumped to stderr: (emacs:5305): GLib-WARNING **: GChildWatchSource: Exit status of a child process was requested but ECHILD was received by waitpid(). Most likely the process is ignoring SIGCHLD, or some other thread is invoking waitpid() with a nonpositive first argument; either behavior can break applications that use g_child_watch_add()/g_spawn_sync() either directly or indirectly. Even when opening an unregistered file in a Mercurial-controlled directory, the same symptom happens. It works when started alone (to open *scratch* buffer) and it's also OK to open a file not under control of Mercurial.

Additional information after the first post: - It gets fixed after uninstalling mercurial, and reproduces again after re-installing mercurial. - It occurs even when there's no ~/.emacs or ~/.emacs.d/init.el - It didn't reproduced on another PC. so it depends on the environments.

It works when started alone (to open *scratch* buffer) and it's also OK to open a file not under control of Mercurial. Additional information after the first post:     - It gets fixed after uninstalling mercurial, and reproduces again after re-installing mercurial.     - It occurs even when there's no ~/.emacs or ~/.emacs.d/init.el     - It didn't reproduced on another PC. so it depends on the environments. - The same symptom reproduces in a git-controlled directory, so it seems to be a problem of vc-mode. - WORKAROUND: Cancel vc-mode in .emacs file by "(setq vc-handled-backends ())" then it works.
