[BUG] adjacent italic and underline don't render correctly [9.5.1 (9.5.1-g36086a @ /Users/rob/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.5.1/)]

[BUG] adjacent italic and underline don't render correctly [9.5.1 (9.5.1-g36086a @ /Users/rob/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.5.1/)]

[Robert Nikander]

I have:

(setq org-hide-emphasis-markers t)

…and the following does not render right. In the first line I see the ‘_’ characters around “underline”, and it doesn’t underline the text.
In the second line, it works correctly. Apparently it needs some intervening text (“foo” in this case). 

The first line should work, no?

— begin example org file —
* Test
Mix /italic/ _underline_.
Mix /italic/ foo _underline_.
— end example org file ---

I am unable to reproduce it on latest main.

Note that I remember this error and I believe that fixed it by reverting
the problematic commit. However, it was before 36086a. I suspect that
you have a mixed installation of Org. Try to remove and re-install Org.

Best,
Ihor

Thank you for checking. I tried to reinstall the package, but it did not help, and it caused another problem where I could not quit emacs.

Details… I ran M-x list-packages, found and deleted my org package, quit emacs. Restarted emacs and I saw I had the builtin org (lower version: 9.4.4) and the bug I reported is gone. I tried reinstalling the 9.5.1 org package (after restarting emacs), and it installed, and then I couldn’t quit emacs without killing it. If I ran my usual quit command (save-buffers-kill-terminal) or tried to quit from the macOS menu, I got this message:

org-clock-kill-emacs-query: Symbol’s function definition is void: org-clocking-buffer

Also the bug I reported is back. 

Maybe I’ll just stick with the builtin org package 9.4.4.  

Am I supposed to somehow delete the builtin one when I install 9.5.1? Here is what the buffer looks like when I hit enter on the installed 9.5.1 package:

— begin paste —
Package org is installed.

Actually, I missed that you are on ELPA version. Apparently I forgot to
fix the problem on stable Org version (which is what you get from ELPA).

I pushed the fix now. It should be uploaded to ELPA in a few hours.

This is annoying. We have seen this kind of issue for users using
non-standard package managers, but I do not recall such problems with
ELPA.

I afraid that the problem is partially on Emacs side. We may want to
discuss this with Emacs devs as well, not just within Org mailing list.

AFAIU, things went wrong because you had built-in Org loaded while
installing newer Org. (note that there is nothing wrong on your side,
just some internal Emacs workings we need to resolve or work around)

Best,
