Subject: bug#20839: 25.0.50; file-in-directory-p doesn't understand windows backslashes
Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2015 19:58:18 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAAdUY-JTSJK1zkbo1B=iZ-Nys3wZRFcvWeg4Bm7rTBn69uqTTg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

On windows, the following form returns nil, but I think it should
return non-nil (\\ and / are usually accepted interchangeably on
windows).

    (file-in-directory-p "~/.emacs.d/elpa/magit/" "~\\.emacs.d\\elpa")

This is causing an issue[1] on the package.el's detection of external
packages on windows.
