refile error with org-inlinetask: The kill is not a set of trees

refile error with org-inlinetask: The kill is not a set of trees

[Damien Couroussé]

Hello,

I cannot refile inline tasks when using the package org-inlinetask.

In the example below, I try to refile the TODO task to another heading.
I get the error message "The kill is not a (set of) tree(s) - please use
<S-insertchar> to yank anyway".

This looks like a problem of bad configuration, but after having read
the file org-inlinetask.el, I don't have a clue what is the problem
here. Any help will be greatly appreciated  :)


Here is below a minimal example.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
* a

* b

** b1

** b2
*************** TODO this is a test task
*************** END
#+END_EXAMPLE


Configuration:

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
;;; Minimal setup to load latest `org-mode'

;; activate debugging
(setq debug-on-error t
      debug-on-signal nil
      debug-on-quit nil)

;; add latest org-mode to load path
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "/usr/share/org-mode/lisp"))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name
"/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacs-goodies-el"))
(require 'org-inlinetask)
#+END_EXAMPLE

And the contents of the messages buffer:

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE

Has this been resolved? I'm having the same problem.
