Dear Werner, again, thank you very much for your kind help. I am happy with the work-around using the -nsl option. I re-installed enforced desktop-file-utils and gettext-runtime. I even tried and reinstalled *all* packages using the command zypper in -f $(rpm -qa --qf '%{NAME} ') No luck, though, I still need the -nsl option. Maybe something is broken in the site-lib directory from the Tumbleweed package?

Dear Werner,
I used the Yast Software Management system to deinstall emacs, emacs-info, etags and emacs-x11. Then I deleted /usr/share/emacs. Then I rebooted the system (to make sure I kill any demon I might not be aware of). And then, I used zypper to reinstall emacs. With it came the other three programs (emacs-x11, etags, emacs-info).
# sudo rpm -aV gives among a lot of other messages:
missing /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/desktop-entry-mode.el missing /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/po-compat.el missing /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/po-mode.el missing /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/start-po.el missing /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/suse-start-po-mode.el
Would that be important?
You might reinstall this enforced by using the packages
desktop-file-utils gettext-runtime
... you should stop also any possible running emacs daemon (which is a server used by emacsclient)
systemctl --user stop emacs killall emacs-gtk emacs-x11
(ignore any error messages) ... then remove all stalled auto saved informations:
rm -fv ~/.emacs.d/auto-save-list/.save*
but be careful, that is do not mistype here as UNIX will not ask you if you want remove files with such a command.
