4.70 org-goto bug

4.70 org-goto bug

[Rick Moynihan]

Hi, I've been playing with org-mode 4.70 and I'm really liking the 
multiple TODO sequences.

However, I seem to have encountered a bug with org-goto.  When 
navigating between headings of the same level with "f" and "b", if I try 
and move too far (i.e. I'm at either the first or last level of 
indentation and I push f/b respectively) I get the error:

error "before first heading".

Then ALL of my emacs keybindings fail, I can't seem to switch buffers or 
even kill the debug buffer.

Strangely sometimes I can't seem to generate the error, so it doesn't 
seem to happen EVERY time, though restarting Emacs and navigating 
straight to an org-mode buffer through the agenda and instantly trying 
to cause the bug through running C-c C-j and then generating the error 
through the process described above seems to cause it every time.  Could 
there be something funny in my config?

I cannot reproduce that bug.  Anyone?

I can't reproduce it either. However, on the first heading, 'b' will
move to the first line of the buffer even it is not a heading. Is this
intentional?

To reproduce:
   o  'C-c C-j'
   o  hit 'u' until on level-1 heading
   o  hit 'b' all the way

You will see cursor eventually located in a non-heading line and 'f'
won't be able to move back to heading line although 'n' can.

Sample org file:
,----
|   #+STARTUP: content
|   * Head 1
|   * Head 2
`----

I am just using outline-backward-same-level and don't want to
re-implement this function just to fix this minor bug.
You might want to report this as bug to the Emacs maintainers.

I've discovered that this problem was only occuring at work, and not at 
home.  I think my site installation of emacs 22 was messed up, perhaps 
colliding with emacs21.  And possibly confusing the org-mode install. 
In truth I have no idea, but a clean reinstall seems to have things 
working normally.  For now anyway... :)
