(emacs:50055): GLib-WARNING **: In call to g_spawn_sync(), exit status of a child process was requested but SIGCHLD action was set to SIG_IGN and ECHILD was received by waitpid(), so exit status can't be returned. This is a bug in the program calling g_s pawn_sync(); either don't request the exit status, or don't set the SIGCHLD action.
I build emacs (and e16) from ports, and update mostly every week.
>emacs --version
GNU Emacs 23.2.1
>pkg-config glib-2.0 --modversion
2.26.1
Rebuilt emacs recently (Nov 29) and still see the same warning.
>emacs -nw
doesn't seem to have the problem.
>emacs -q
still does have the problem (not my init file).
Seems that there is some build configuration problem, or perhaps a bug in emacs, however other than the annoying warning all seems ok.
Not sure if this is affected by dbus...
ps | grep dbus
49982 3 I 0:00.00 dbus-launch --autolaunch=3b2621782174a28397a59dca0000
Any ideas?
