Re: best gnu/linux distro for emacs

Hi,

I prefer Arch Linux, because you always get the newest stuff only hours after it
was released and they dont patch the sources so you really get the real thing.

just my 2 cent ;)

Many distros do not provide emacs out of the box.  Something of a slap in the face, and unexpected.  And annoying.  Various distros handle emacs differently. 

I like the way Gentoo handles emacs, and I may reinstall gentoo in the future.  Arch worked farily well.  I would prefer to just leave it alone, pretty much, and tolerate compiling it oneself.

For now, what is the "best" distribution of GNU/Linux for running emacs?
