I have the below set in my init file:
---
(setq org-agenda-deadline-faces
'((1.01 . org-agenda-deadline-past)
(1.0 . org-agenda-deadline-today)
(0.9 . org-agenda-deadline-tomorrow)
(0.7 . org-agenda-deadline-soon)
(0.0 . org-agenda-deadline-upcoming)))
---
But the faces are not created and the below lines keep appearing in
*Messages*:
---
Invalid face reference: org-agenda-deadline-today [6 times]
Invalid face reference: org-agenda-deadline-past [19 times]
---
`describe-face` says `[No match]` when run on any of these agenda deadline
faces. `describe-face` does work with the default faces though, i.e.
`org-imminent-deadline`.
However, running `describe-variable` on `org-agenda-deadline-faces`
indicates that the value is correct:
```
Value:
((1.01 . org-agenda-deadline-past)
(1.0 . org-agenda-deadline-today)
(0.9 . org-agenda-deadline-tomorrow)
(0.7 . org-agenda-deadline-soon)
(0.0 . org-agenda-deadline-upcoming))
Original value was
((1.0 . org-imminent-deadline)
(0.5 . org-upcoming-deadline)
(0.0 . org-upcoming-distant-deadline))
```
Turning on `debug-on-error` does nothing when the messages are generated.
This `org-agenda-deadline-faces` settings has been working without any
problems for years. I think the problem began with org v6.6.16, but am not
completely certain.
Is this a bug?
Thanks, Mark

These two faces have nothing to do with Org mode. Org mode simply does
not define such faces and never did (I cannot find these face names in
git history). In fact, Org mode does not define any of the faces in you
custom value.

I am not sure what you mean by "working" - incorrect faces could have
been ignored by older Emacs. Newer Emacs indicate the problem with
invalid faces.
Canceled.

Faces that you reference from org-agenda-deadline-faces should exist and
should be valid faces. However, it does not look like your
`org-agenda-deadline-past' and `org-agenda-deadline-today' faces are
defined correctly. You might have used malformed face declaration.
May you show how you define these custom faces in your config?

I do not see any problem in how org-agenda handles this variable. I
suspect that the problem is in your config.
If you think that the problem is on Org side, please provide a minimal
reproducer starting from emacs -Q. See

This is not complete. I wanted to see how you define
`org-agenda-deadline-today' and `org-agenda-deadline-past' faces. They
are not standard faces provided by Org mode, so you need to define them
yourself.

"Invalid face reference" error means exactly this - the face it
complains about is not a valid face.
