Problems with emacs+ess



Hello!

I am on a debian stable+testing system, with cinnamon.  For quite some time emacs (gui) is misbehaving.
I have installed both emacs 24 and emacs25 packages, same issue with both.

I have installed ess  (emacs speaks statistics) which is very useful with R. Usually, I run emacs, and open a buffer
with my corrent R script file, say statistics_with-R.R

In that buffer, I usually type alt+x and then type the comnmand R.  Then, emacs is supposed to open a new buffer (in a new frame)
running R, so that I can send R commands directly by marking the command in my script and typing Ctrl-C-C

But now, the buffer opens, R opens in that buffer, but somehow enters an infinite loop ...

In the buffer, it shows tjhe R command:
if(identical(getOption('pager'), file.path(R.home('bin'), 'pager')))  # rather take the ESS one

runs, and do not seem to terminate ...

What can be done?  Ideas?

Kjetil
