emacs-27.2

[Douglas R. Reno]

New minor version

[Douglas R. Reno]

* Changes in Emacs 27.2

This is a bug-fix release with no new features.

 
* Lisp Changes in Emacs 27.2

** The behavior of the user option 'resize-mini-frames' has changed.
If set to a non-nil value which isn't a function, resize the mini
frame using the new function 'fit-mini-frame-to-buffer' which won't
skip leading or trailing empty lines of the buffer.

 
* Changes in Specialized Modes and Packages in Emacs 27.2

** Tramp

*** The user option 'tramp-completion-reread-directory-timeout' is now obsolete.

 
* Changes in Emacs 27.2 on Non-Free Operating Systems

** Emacs now ignores modifier keys when IME input is used.
By default, pressing Ctrl, Shift, and Alt keys while using IME input
will no longer apply the modifiers to the produced characters, as
there are IMEs which use keys with modifiers to input some
characters.  Customize the variable 'w32-ignore-modifiers-on-IME-input'
to nil to get back the old behavior.

It looks like some dependency changes were missed from 27.1. Harfbuzz and Jansson are now required by default, and switches have to be passed to build without them. I'll update the command explanations and dependencies to reflect that
