still having problem with #23917

[Saša Janiška]

Hello,

after upgrading Emacs to 25.1 (GNU Emacs 25.1.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu,
 GTK+ Version 3.22.1) of 2016-10-11, modified by Debian) I still have
 problem which smells like:

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=23917

It’s not 100% reproducible, but I appears with the recurring org-mode
tasks like:

 
** TODO test
   DEADLINE: <2016-10-28 Pet +1d>

When I try to complete the task with C-c C-t I get:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Match data clobbered by buffer
  modification hooks") replace-match(#(" :LAST_REPEAT: [2016-10-29 Sub
  10:56]" 0 3 (fontified nil) 3 4 (fontified nil) 4 15 (fontified nil)
  15 16 (fontified nil) 17 39 (fontified nil)) t t)
  org--align-node-property() org-indent-line() org-entry-put(nil
  "LAST_REPEAT" "[2016-10-29 Sub 10:56]") org-auto-repeat-maybe("DONE")
  org-todo(nil) funcall-interactively(org-todo nil)
  call-interactively(org-todo nil nil) command-execute(org-todo)

My org-version is:

Org-mode version 8.3.6 (8.3.6-7-g4d7d52-elpa @
/home/gour/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20161024/)


Any hint how to resolve it?


Sincerely,
Gour

How about reporting this to Org maintainers?

Well, I did post to org-mdoe list and was told to try with the master of
org-mode.

Otoh, this one was problem discussed on emacs-devel: “Please consider
making Bug #23917 a blocker for 25.1” and the fact is it was not present
in 24.5?

If the problem persists on the Org master, you should get back to the
Orf maintainers and tell them about it.

That bug was fixed before Emacs 25.1 was released, so your Emacs
doesn't have that bug.

The error message and the test which triggers it are new in Emacs 25.1
so it's a small wonder you don't see it in previous versions.  That
doesn't mean the bug is in the code which emits the error message, the
first suspect is the Lisp code which runs when the error appears.
Therefore, the Org maintainers should take a look at that.
