Thanks for trying out Hyperbole.

As you point out there is a problem in version 8.0.0. This has been fixed in
the development version. You can install that from the elpa-devel
archive. Sorry for the inconvenience.

This is likely a duplicate of bug#67747. Copying from there:

Please install the latest pre-release of Hyperbole (has many fixes and is
almost a year newer) and restart your Emacs.  Then see if your bug still
exists and re-report it or close this bug.

Install Hyperbole:  (progn (require 'package)
                           (add-to-list 'package-archives
                                        '("elpa-devel" . "https://elpa.gnu.org/devel/"))
                           (package-install 'hyperbole))

Yours
-- 
%% Mats

PS. Version 9.0.0 is available through elpa at the moment but was relased by
mistake by us earlier this week. We are working on releasing a version 9.0.1
that will be the proper 9.0.0 release and it will correct the above mentioned
error. DS.
