From: Stefan Monnier <monnier <at> iro.umontreal.ca> To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: Error with multiple frames Date: Mon, 25 Apr 2011 14:54:53 -0300
Package: Emacs,Gnus Version: 24.0.50 I use the following patch which doesn't do quite the right thing I think, but at least doesn't burp in my use. The problem is of course that get-buffer-window may return nil rather than a window. I've bumped into it when I select a group, then select an article in the summary, then do C-x 5 b *Group* and then from the summary buffer hit `q'. Sadly, this recipe doesn't reproduce the problem, and I'm not sure exactly what sequence of actions reproduces it, other than the fact that it happens when I leave a summary buffer and the *Group* buffer is already displayed in some other frame. If/when I bump into it again, I'll send you the corresponding backtrace.
