Hello.
I encountered a problem that looks like a bug to me: scroll-restore-mode
(from elpa.gnu.org) breaks comint-mode (built-in, GNU Emacs 25.1.50.1).
Steps to reproduce in a clear environment:
$ mkdir /tmp/emacs.d
$ emacs --quick --eval '(setq user-emacs-directory "/tmp/emacs.d")'
(package-initialize)
(package-refresh-contents)
(package-install 'scroll-restore)
(setq scroll-restore-jump-back t)
(scroll-restore-mode 1)
M-x shell
Now I can type the first command (c d RET), start to type the second one
— and the point jumps before shell prompt:
user@local:~$ cd¦
cd¦user@local:~$
(here ‘¦’ denotes cursor position)
I could move point back to the end manually (with M-> for instance), but
that is pretty annoying.
So I have two questions:
1. Where to report the bug — it seems to me that it belongs to
scroll-restore-mode, but its page [0] says nothing about where to mail
issues. Is it maintained at all?
[0] https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/scroll-restore.html
2. What I can do right now to make it works?
I actually would hardly need scroll-restore-mode in shell, so it would
be enough for me if there were a way disable it on per-major-mode basis.
However scroll-restore-mode has only global state, no buffer-local, as
far as I can see.

Don't report it here. Use `M-x report-emacs-bug'.

So it’s ok to report issues with packages from elpa.gnu.org against GNU
Emacs itself? Nice. Thanks for a prompt response.

Dunno. Maybe I was too quick and curt in my response. I thought
this was a problem with Emacs itself.
If it is a 3rd-party library, whether from GNU ELPA, MELPA, Emacs
Wiki, or wherever, then `M-x report-emacs-bug' is probably not
the right way to report it.
In that case, the library (package) code Commentary or doc should
itself tell you how to report bugs for it. It should at least
provide some contact info for the maintainer.
What I really meant to say (should have said) is to not report
bugs here - this is primarily a help list - but to report them
to the code maintainer.

M-x report-emacs-bug is fine for GNU ELPA packages.

scroll-restore.el says:
;; Time-stamp: "2007-12-05 10:44:11 martin"
;; Author: Martin Rudalics <rudalics@gmx.at>
;; Keywords: scrolling
;; Version: 1.0
so you can send it to Martin, but for GNU ELPA packages you can also use
M-x report-emacs-bug.

You can try
(add-hook 'comint-mode-hook
(lambda () (setq-local scroll-restore-mode nil)))
tho I have no idea if it would work,

Fortunately, it seems that Martin monitors bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org — in
any case, he have already responded to a bug mailed there [1].

Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind.

Sorry, it does not.
