bug in recentf.el

bug in recentf.el

[Heiko Gerdau]

Hi,

this seems to be a bug showing up in the recentf.el package:

How to reproduce: if you customize the recentf menu to be toplevel 
(recentf-menu-path nil) and visit a file using that menu, than the 
toplevel recentf menu gets to equal submenus containing both the recentf 
menu.

if you use the default settings ( submenu of the file menu) the effect 
described above does not happen.

I see this on Linux with the current stable 21.3 and the current cvs 
version of gnu emacs (21.3.50.1).

Greetings
Heiko

    I see this on Linux with the current stable 21.3 and the current cvs 
    version of gnu emacs (21.3.50.1).

I will forward your bug report to the author of recentf.  Thanks.

Meanwhile, please note that Linux alone is not a sufficient platform
to run Emacs on.  Linux is just a kernel, and you need an entire
operating system.  Probably you are referring to a version of the GNU
system in which Linux is the kernel.  In other words, to GNU/Linux.
See http://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html for more explanation.

Most of the users of this system don't know it is our work, and that
reduces our ability to recruit people today to do more work--incluing,
for instance, fix the bugs in Emacs that you encounter and report
here.

Would you please help us serve the public more, by calling the system
"GNU/Linux" rather than Linux, most especially when you post on
mailing lists?  Thanks in advance.
