This has been installed as

I moved the dev utility to

  test/lisp/erc/resources/erc-tests-common.el

and changed it to only modify the local binding of the variable
`imenu-generic-expression'. Installed as:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/?id=e9591fae

Thanks and closing.

Hello Maintainers,

I guess this is probably unexpected behavior by which-function-mode in erc-mode
buffers and so reporting this.


steps to reproduce:
emacs --no-init
M-x erc
;; join some channel.
M-x which-function-mode

Current behavior:
In erc buffers, which-function-mode displays either "[n/a]" or a string based on
the chat history in the mode line.

Expected behavior:
which-function-mode shouldn’t be adding any string to mode line in erc buffers


Thank you for your time!
