Cursor movement issue when global-linum-mode is enabled

Cursor movement issue when global-linum-mode is enabled

Hello,

I am using the latest version of Damien Cassou's emacs-snapshot[1] on
Ubuntu 12.04
After it was updated yesterday, I noticed a weird behaviour of C-p skipping
a line when
moving up, ie C-p moves the cursor 2 lines up instead of 1

After disabling some of my initializations, I figured out that this happens
only if
global-linum-mode is enabled.

Has anyone else faced this issue?

my emacs version:
"GNU Emacs 24.3.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.4.2)
 of 2012-12-03 on chindi02, modified by Debian"

I don't see this in the latest development sources.  Can you show a
precise recipe, starting with "emacs -Q"?

Yes,

1. start emacs with "emacs -Q" as you mentioned,
2. Open any file having multiple lines of text/code and try
using C-p to move up a line. This works as expected.
3. enable global-linum-mode
4. Try it again. C-p moves two lines up

It's a bug.  Please report it with "M-x report-emacs-bug RET".

Thanks.

Thanks for confirming. I sent a bug report.

I didn't know about reporting bugs from inside emacs. It's a great idea :-)
