1. C-x C-f

2. /g/e/lisp/sub <TAB>

=> Find file: /gnu/emacs/lisp/sub

In *Completions* press the mouse on  subr.el

Result: /gnu/emacssubr.el

To me emacs is installed in /gnu/emacs.

Please change /g/e/lisp/sub with the letters from your local path to emacs.

I should have said <M-TAB> instead of TAB. With TAB it looks for path completion. With M-TAB it looks for elisp symbols. There is no sense I believe to look for elisp symbols in this case...

Ouf... What is so difficult to reproduce such a simple problem?

A. in shell:

1. mkdir -p /gnu/

2. ln -s <your-local-path-to your emacs installation> /gnu/

B. in emacs:

3. M-x partial-completion-mode <RET>

=> partial-completion-mode on

4. C-x C-f

Find file: /g/e/lisp/sub    <TAB>

=> Find file: /gnu/emacs/lisp/sub

and a window containing verbatim this text:

  Click <mouse-2> on a completion to select it.
  In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.

  Possible completions are:
  subdirs.el			   subr.el

5. SELECT WITH THE MOUSE subr.el

Result: emacssubr.el file is completed in Find file and opened.

Well, today (in this evening) I will recompile emacs and I will tell you if my error was just this one.

I compiled it 2 weeks ago, and maybe this patch was not included.
