Try this simple experiment.
$ ls -og /var/tmp/nora/

$ emacs -Q /var/tmp/nora/
v q SPC v q SPC SPC v q

Notice after viewing a few pictures the cursor is not returned to the
picture we just viewed! This only started happening this week.

The same thing happens with .TXT etc. files. Bananas!

$ apt-cache policy $@
emacs-snapshot:
  Installed: 1:20110926-1

This is the most terrible horrible bug, as one assumes the cursor is
still sitting upon the image we just viewed, and proceeds to use a

! runs the command dired-do-shell-command

on it, or remove it, etc.

It happened because `window-point' doesn't return `point' when the
argument window is selected but its buffer is not current.

Please try again and thanks for the report, martin

I had also noticed this irritating problem, and it's gone now.
