Subject: Emacs 25.1 RC1: incipient insanity, or can't set debug-on-error.
Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2016 20:34:50 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160726203450.GA10926@acm.fritz.box> (raw)
Hello, Emacs.
Start RC1 with emacs -Q.
M-: debug-on-error returns t.
C-h v debug-on-error states that the variable has value nil. How can
this be?
M-: (setq debug-on-error nil) ; in buffer *scratch*, still.
M-: debug-on-error returns t. How can this be?
Why does this variable behave so strangely? Or am I going mad? Or,
even both? Should I submit a bug report for this?
