Hi

i have set bookmark saving to t (bookmark-save-flag 1)

yet now every time i finish a org-capture i get this dialog:

Delete excess backup versions of /home/zeltak/.emacs.d/bookmarks? (y or n) y

i do want to auto save bookmarks, but can i exclude that when capturing in
org?

Just FYI, t is not the same as 1 here.  Check the help for that
variable.  :)

When you finish a capture, org-capture saves a bookmark pointing to the
last captured item, but that uses the built-in Emacs bookmark system, so
this is not an org-related issue.  If you were to make any kind of
bookmark manually, it should produce the same prompt.  I guess you need
to look at the bookmark-version-control setting and follow that rabbit
trail...  ;)
