Emacs 24.3 for windows, Tramp byte-code: Couldn't find a proper `ls' command

24.2 works well, but 24.3 bounded tramp got following error when open remote Linux system files or directories:

"byte-code: Couldn't find a proper `ls' command"

I open tramp trace and find that, all remote search path and file path are extend by something, adding a extra "c:" at the beginning. The results is that tramp can find neither command nor file I want to open.

Anyone know something about this? Thanks in advance.

Solution

I had the same problem after switching to Emacs 24.3. The solution was to upgrade to the latest Tramp 2.2.7. Here is what I did:

downloaded http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/tramp/tramp-2.2.7.tar.gz
unpacked the archive to my ~/.emacs.d/src. I am using emacs-starter-kit which adds this directory and all its subdirectories to the load-path. Otherwise follow the instructions in the Tramp's INSTALL file.
used Cygwin bash to configure and compile the files. I don't use Cygwin's Emacs normally but it is convenient to have it for occasions like this.
deleted the old tramp's el and elc files in my emacs/lisp/net for safety.
restarted Emacs of course.

Do M-x tramp-version to make sure it is installed correctly. Now tramp works everywhere (dired, eshell, shell, etc).
