From: Ken Raeburn <raeburn <at> redhat.com> To: 42706 <at> debbugs.gnu.org Subject: bug#42706: 27.0.50; commands breaking on unreachable remote directory Date: Tue, 04 Aug 2020 09:55:04 -0400
A couple commands I've tried have failed if the default directory for a
buffer is remote and the server is unreachable. One was list-buffers
when one of my buffers (not the current one) was visiting a remote file
on a server that was down. The other was cd, when the current default
directory was remote. In both cases, the file-error error ("Timeout
reached") was raised and not trapped. The cd command did not get to the
point of prompting me for a new directory. Stack traces are below. Looks
like a common failure point is calling abbreviate-file-name, which calls
file-name-case-insensitive-p, which under tramp/scp runs remote
commands, or tries to.
While file-name-case-insensitive-p can't guarantee a reasonable answer
in the case of a failed connection, it looks to me like
abbreviate-file-name could probably fail safe by assuming case
sensitivity and continuing on.
I haven't noticed these problems before trying Emacs 27 pretests, but I
may have just gotten lucky.
