Suddenly, my M- `completion-at-point' isn't working. Would somebody please explain? This is on a recent master branch build. I'm not even entirely sure the problem is in Emacs. Maybe a recent update to Linux or the kbd package has messed things up. More precisely, when in an Emacs Lisp Mode buffer, when I type M- I get the error message is undefined .. I don't recall M- ever being called "", so I at first tried to find something recent changed in Linux. No luck, there. Have I missed some vigorous discussion on emacs-devel which concluded that the key binding should be removed? When I do C-h w completion-at-point, I get told it's not bound to any key. Why, why, why? Would somebody please explain _what_ has changed here, and if relevant, why. I don't think this will be a popular change. :-( Thanks! -- Alan Mackenzie (Nuremberg, Germany).
