 Unable to customize Tramp group without d-bus support compiled in
Date: Sun, 19 Oct 2014 13:28:46 -0500

Running emacs -Q compiled from homebrew on the Mac, I'm unable to do:

M-x customize-group and select "tramp".  The customize screen doesn't
show any options other than Revert..., Apply and I see a message in the
echo area about:

Confirmed on GNU/Linux, works in 24.3, fails in 24.4.

I will check when time permits. I'm just starting to a business trip;
hopefully I'm able to work on this while on the road.

Best regards, Michael.

I've committed a fix for this to the trunk. Could you, please, check
whether it is solved for you? Thanks-

Best regards, Michael.

This sounds like something that have gone to emacs-24 rather than trunk.

Well, maybe. But there are also other Tramp patches in the trunk from
the last weeks, and I haven't decided yet how I will proceed with them.

Likely I will perform a sync/backport session for all these patches. But
not today, being on the road, and being faced with a poor infrastructure.

Best regards, Michael.
