Thanks for the version info and the backtrace. I only tried to recreate the
issue using the latest development version where I did not get it. I think we
did some major changes to how the hyrolo-file-list is handled since the latest
major release. (Yes, we are way behind in how we would want to produce stable
releases.)
So you might want to give the version of Hyperbole available through gnu-devel
(or melpa) a try. It has many other improvements as well.

No need to create a bug report.
I can't reach elpa.gnu.org at the moment but will later try to recreate the
issue just for the sake of confirming I also see it.
@Bob - When I used the development version I did not get any errors but the
hyrolo-file-list was not set either. If it is nil we use a default, as it
seems, without setting the var for the next user session. I think that is by
design but might be confusing for a user?
