Subject: 23.0.93; bookmarks-jump only works on second try
Date: Tue, 26 May 2009 21:34:11 +0200

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

When trying to open a file with bookmark-jump the first try results in
an error message like this:

Loading bookmark...done
Fontifying .emacs.bmk... (regexps...)
string-match: Wrong type argument: symbolp,
("org-remember-last-stored" (filename . "~/notes.org")
(front-context-string . "** [2009-05-26 D") (rear-context-string . "
Di 14:52] test ") (position . 2403))

From the second try on it works without problems - as long as emacs is
started anew.


If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/23.0.93/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

Please give a complete recipe showing how to reproduce the problem,
starting from emacs -Q with no .emacs.bmk file. Also, do M-x
toggle-debug-on-error and include the resulting backtrace.

I could not reproduce this in normal use of bookmarks, but it seems
org is involved somehow.

Emacs started with `-Q' and a non-existing .emacs.bmk leads to no
problems. I can set bookmarks and jump to it. 

Emacs started as usual and no .emacs.bmk present causes no problems
either. But if I set a bookmark and start it again the above mentioned
behaviour reoccures. (As I don't use bookmarks this would be no problem,
but org-mode sets a bookmark when using org-remember)

Please keep 3391 in the cc.

The recipe starting from emacs -Q is missing, but your backtrace
suggest this is a problem in linkd.el (specifically, in linkd-match),
which is not part of Emacs.

Ah, yes, linkd.el was the culprit. Since I did not use it anymore I
removed it from .emacs. 

Many thanks
