Hi Nicolas,

Sorry, I missed this one.

(global-set-key (kbd "C-c c") 'org-ca= pture)

OK, thanks for the tip. The problem lie= s in the "org-capture-templates" settings. I think in the past, i= t accept a "nil" argument. Now it expects an empty string. Replac= ing nil with empty string solves my problem.

This seems expected according to the docstring.

Have you tried to specify an actual filename, or the empty string,
instead of using nil? Both `file+headline' and `file+datetree' expe= ct
some file to operate on.
