Subject: bug#1237: 23.0.60; `switch-to-buffer-other-window' sometimes uses selected window
Date: Sat, 01 Nov 2008 22:16:47 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <jwvhc6q3mak.fsf-monnier+emacsbugreports@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <490C9A90.40407@gmx.at> (martin rudalics's message of "Sat, 01 Nov 2008 19:06:08 +0100")

> I've been looking into this and found out that in order to fix problems

That sounds good, please install them.
