debbugs: Make bug list update asynchronous |
|

Severity: wishlist
When I type:
M-x debbugs-gnu RET ,minor,wishlist RET
It takes a long time to load on my machine, and it freezes my entire
Emacs session while I wait. It would be very nice if this operation
could be made to work asynchronously.
Thanks,
Stefan Kangas

No, nothing happened. And since there aren't no further complaints from
other users, I believe we could leave it as it is. Closing the bug.
