So there's a random anecdote which suggests it might not be that hard to reproduce the bug, (perhaps doesn't require any special messages). In my case, it's less annoying because I have more than a screenful of messages in my inbox (for shame!) so the message with the green bar isn't even visible when emacs' point is moved to the message that is actually selected. So if I hadn't been intentionally looking for this behavior I likely would have never noticed. -Carl ___ notmuch mailing list -- notmuch@notmuchmail.org To unsubscribe send an email to notmuch-le...@notmuchmail.org

My desktop now behaves exactly like my laptop, and it is really
annoying. Surely I'm not the only one with this problem. Can no one
else reproduce this?

Uh, you are right. I meant to pick mails form notmuch@, but this one is
from another list. I actually reduced the example further:
mkdir -p /tmp/selection-bug/{tmp,new,cur}
echo "[database]
path=/tmp/selection-bug" > /tmp/selection-bug/notmuch-config
NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/tmp/selection-bug/notmuch-config notmuch new
NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/tmp/selection-bug/notmuch-config emacs -q --eval "(require

# M-x notmuch-hello, search for '*'
notmuch show --format=raw id:87edvlanuh@tethera.net |
NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/tmp/selection-bug/notmuch-config notmuch insert
# refresh search buffer, press down once, i.e. navigate to "End of search
results".
notmuch show --format=raw id:87fsfuuxwn.fsf@thinkbox |
NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/tmp/selection-bug/notmuch-config notmuch insert
# refresh search buffer, bug: your mail is green, mine is opened on pressing
enter.
(I.e., just drop Nicolas' mail.)
The bug can be seen even with just one mail, but then its impact is less
severe:
mkdir -p /tmp/selection-bug/{tmp,new,cur}
echo "[database]
path=/tmp/selection-bug" > /tmp/selection-bug/notmuch-config
NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/tmp/selection-bug/notmuch-config notmuch new
NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/tmp/selection-bug/notmuch-config emacs -q --eval "(require
'notmuch)"
# M-x notmuch-hello, search for '*', press down once, i.e. navigate past the
line "End of search results".
notmuch show --format=raw id:87edvlanuh@tethera.net |
NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/tmp/selection-bug/notmuch-config notmuch insert
# refresh search buffer, bug: your mail is green, but in fact "End of search
results" is selected and is "acted upon" when pressing enter.
> 2) Just to be clear, that script has to be run manually, with the

Yes.
As additional data point, I cannot reproduce the problem on my Desktop
which has the same emacs version but uses elpa-notmuch 0.31.4-2. On
this system, if I run the reproducer, there is no line with a green
background, so it is less misleading.

1) Do you think the particular messages matter? I don't have
id:8735buw7gf@ngraves.fr
2) Just to be clear, that script has to be run manually, with the
comments corresponding to interactive actions in emacs?

Selection bug
Moin, there is a bug in notmuch emacs that is mildly annoying. Sometimes when I refresh my search buffer, and there are new mails, the topmost (i.e. newest) message seems to be selected (i.e. with green background), but in fact if i hit enter (or do any other state changing action like tagging), notmuch emacs acts on the previously selected message. There is a visual clue to that, the block cursor is still on that previously selected message. Still, I think it is a bug, and because the green background dominates the block cursor, I run into this all the time. I'll attach a screenshot that shows the bug.
