Yes, I mean %i, the capital %I in this quote is --as I realize
now, while typing this email-- an abbrev artefact.[1]  I assume I
pasted from the X11 selection and the abbrev capitalized it.

In my customizations file all templates have %I.  Sorry for this
very special noise: this capital I does not explain the capture
errors I experience with recent git master, since they are not
part of my templates.

Ciao; Gregor

[1] English is a foreign language to me, I always type the
personal pronoun "I" with a small letter and once thought it
would be a good idea to automatically correct this.  Later I
forgot about this.

This is, because the bisecting does not find the first bad commit,
but perhaps this helps somehow:

0 (master=) grfz@len:~/src/org-mode$ git bisect start
0 (master|BISECTING=) grfz@len:~/src/org-mode$ cd ~/src/org-mode; rm -rf * ;

Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.

Note: checking out '2348d1834351b57d5ff9bbdb2c74c3e69ed60cfb'.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:
  
  git checkout -b

Yes, sure.  Sorry, for my laziness.  None of my templates work any more
with git master.  This is a (for privacy reasons) shortend version of
my customizations, done with the customize system:

...

I cannot reproduce it with default template. Do you use a special one?

[O] Bug: master: "Capture abort: (error Format specifier doesn’t match argument type)"

[Gregor Zattler]

Hi org-mode developers,

with

GNU Emacs 26.0.91 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version
3.22.11) of 2018-04-02

and 

Org mode version 9.1.9 (release_9.1.9-560-gf93aa7 @
/home/grfz/src/org-mode/lisp/)


I get

"Capture abort: (error Format specifier doesn’t match argument
type)"

after hitting the template key in order to capture something.

This is not the case in

Org mode version 9.1.9 (release_9.1.9-3-gb1a639 @
/home/grfz/src/org-mode/lisp/)
from maint as of b1a6395dfeadd9adc5ce7633f341dfbbb30bd39e.


I tried to bisect this with
make autoloads ; emacs-snapshot -nw --debug-init --eval '(org-capture 4 "t")'
as a test, but did not find the culprit.

As a workaround I switched to main.

Thanks for your attention, Gregor
