Dear Emacs developper,
`delete-selection-mode' on 25.1 does not work well when
`select-enable-primary' is `t'.
1. runemacs.exe -Q
2. (setq select-enable-primary t)
3. M-x delete-selection-mode
4. select region and kill
5. select other region and yank
The region selected by step 5 stays, not replace by yanked text.

Since selecting text in step 5 puts the selected text in the primary
selection, and thus overwrites the text saved there by the kill in
step 4, I don't see how it makes sense to set select-enable-primary
while using delete-selection-mode: these two options contradict each
other in fundamental ways. On top of that, primary selection doesn't
really exist on MS-Windows, it's only emulated inside the Emacs
session, which makes its use even less useful.
IOW, I don't see a bug here.
Thanks.

Thank you for replay. I see. It seems I did not understand how it works.
For unknown reason, I used 24.5 with (setq select-enable-primary t); It
is likely that 24.5 just ignores it.
Sorry to bother.
