Solved: ESS 5.1.18 on Solaris

[Warnes, Gregory R]

In a previous message I reported:


    WGR> I'm trying to use ESS 5.1.18 on my Sun Ultra here (uname -a
    WGR> ==> SunOS gsun124 5.8 Generic_108528-03 sun4u sparc
    WGR> SUNW,Ultra-5_10)

    WGR> I've downloaded and installed ess in .xemacs/ess-5.1.18/

    WGR> When I do (require 'ess-site) there are no errors.

    WGR> However, when I ask for R-mode via M-x R <Ret>, I get the
    WGR> message:

    WGR> "Wrong number of arguments: #<subr x-get-resource>, 2"


    WGR> I don't remember having seen this error previously.  Ideas?

I've finally discovered the root of the problem.  XEmacs was picking up the
fontlock.el file from .xemacs/ess-.1.18/lisp/19.20/.  This fontlock.el is,
of course, incompatible with xemacs 21.1.12 and whenever fontlock was
required the error message would be generated.  The problem was cleared up
when I deleted the contents of .xemacs/ess-.1.18/lisp/19.20/.
