Subject: Inappropriate error message on saving new file
Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2023 13:07:18 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAJr-wt2LkctV7CcJbE3CLbAbWLK2GMFcF-NojzsAet1LO0G6mQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I’m running Emacs 30.0.50 on Fedora 39.
When I save a new buffer, I get the following upon first saving it, even
after checking that the auto-saved file exists:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function delete-file)
delete-file("<FILEPATH>#<FILENAME>#")
delete-auto-save-file-if-necessary(t)
basic-save-buffer(t)
save-buffer(1)
funcall-interactively(save-buffer 1)
call-interactively(save-buffer nil nil)
command-execute(save-buffer)
I note that delete-auto-save-file-if-necessary occurs after delete-file;
but I don’t see how that could produce the error message.
After ignoring that first error, everything works as expected, so it’s not
a major problem, but I’d like to understand what Emacs is doing.
Thanks!
Fred
