Subject: bug#50194: 28.0.50; tabulated-list-print (with non-nil UPDATE argument) doesn't clean up excess entries
Date: Wed, 25 Aug 2021 00:25:00 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CALjXJSTnjJeoNLzLDT_ePEqNQPT_sXMhsAT71BtzYWdDrDCWMA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

(tabulated-list-print nil t) does not seem to clean up excess remaining
entries/lines if the number of tabulated-list-entries has decreased.

Demo:
    (defun demo-generate-entries (n)
        (mapcar (lambda (i)
                  (list i (vector (format "title %s" i))))
                (number-sequence 1 n)))

    (let ((buf (get-buffer-create "*demo*")))
      (with-current-buffer buf
        (tabulated-list-mode)
        (setq tabulated-list-format '[("title" 70 t)])
        (setq tabulated-list-sort-key '("title"))
        (setq tabulated-list-entries (demo-generate-entries 8))
        (tabulated-list-print)
        (pop-to-buffer buf)
        (setq tabulated-list-entries (demo-generate-entries 4))
        (tabulated-list-print nil t)
        ))

Expected behaviour:
At the end, *demo* buffer should show only 4 entries.

Observed behaviour:
*demo* buffer still holds 8 entries, still showing 4 entries that are
now removed from tabulated-list-entries.
