Gnus/5.110009 (No Gnus v0.9) Emacs/23.0.60 (gnu/linux) |
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the address@hidden mailing list.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
Saving a change with Custom-save deletes the old custom file (in my case
~/.emacs-custom.el). This is quite annoying if you don't have backups.
In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.9)
of 2008-05-04 on bzg.ath.cx
Windowing system distributor `The X.Org Foundation', version 11.0.10400090
configured using `configure '--enable-font-backend' '--with-x-toolkit=gtk''

I also cannot reproduce this, so I am closing this.
If you still see this with the latest version of Emacs, please reply and
we can reopen this if needed.
