Subject: bug#12533: 24.2.50; incorrect behavior & formatting in Customize
Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2012 09:28:17 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2DEA28BB84D4428985626E49AD69DE46@us.oracle.com> (raw)
emacs -Q
(defcustom foo ()
"..."
:type '(repeat (cons
string
(choice
(const flimpo)
(const nil)
(other t))))
:group 'edit)
M-x customize-option foo
Click button INS.
(Optional: Enter something in field `String'.)
Choose `Other' in `Value Menu'.
An INS button pops up inappropriately under `Choice'. If you click it
then it shows that it expects another `repeat' cell, at the wrong level.
If you click the outer (i.e., the correct) INS button, it behaves
normally. But if you then choose `Other' in its `Value Menu' you get
the same problem again.
This broken behavior happens as long as you choose `Other' in `Value
Menu'. If you choose one of the other possibilities then Customize
behaves correctly.
To me this is clearly a bug. But it is so all the way back through
Emacs 20. So I wonder - am I right? I cannot believe that this
behavior is correct. What am I missing?
