debian testing: Problems with R function vignette()

| Hola!
| 
| I am on debian testing, all updates up to date. I am running R via emacs
| and ess, so I canot know if this is an R or emacs/ess problem.  What

So separate it out. Do it outside emacs, if it persists report to the ESS list.

Dirk

| happens is that I want to read an vignette, and calls something like
|     vignette("mle2", package="bbmle")
| 
| the pdf file opens (for me in Foxit reader), no problem, but then emacs
| starts to spew a lot of spam, interfering with the use of ess/R.  A small
| sample:
| 
| ScheduleTimerQuery called
| GetDntDataTotal sql exec success
| GetDntDataQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| ScheduleTimerQuery called
| GetDntDataTotal sql exec success
| GetDntDataQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| ScheduleTimerQuery called
| GetDntDataTotal sql exec success
| GetDntDataQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| ScheduleTimerQuery called
| GetDntDataTotal sql exec success
| GetDntDataQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| GetDntDataPriorQueue sql exec success
| ScheduleTimerQuery called
| GetDntDataTotal sql exec success
| GetDntDataQueue sql exec success
| SchedulePriorTracktype called
| 
| ....  continuing like that without stop.  To get a prompt I have to send
| (from emacs "Signals" menu) the EOF signal, and then choosing "cancel".
| Then I can continue issuing commands, which get interrupted by the noise
| above ... What is happening?
| 
| Now I try the same with R running in a Mate terminal, lets see what happens:
| vignette("mle2", package="bbmle")
| > [TimeStamp]-----main-----begin
| sendMessage
| 
| Well, ... nothing happens---no problems & no pdf!
| 
| Thanks,
