Hello all,
I upgraded both Emacs (from git) and org (elpa) in the last couple of
days. Today I find that I get the following error using
org-open-at-point:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function nil)
nil()
org-gnus-follow-link("nnml+outlook:mail.dt2022" "[...]")
org-gnus-open("nnml+outlook:mail.dt2022#[...]" nil)
org-link-open((link (:standard-properties [1994 nil 2111 2179 2181 0 nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil #<buffer todo.org> nil nil (paragraph (:standard-properties [1994 1994 1994 2182 2182 0 nil nil element t (3 . 1815) nil nil nil #<buffer todo.org> nil nil (item ...)]))] :type "gnus" :type-explicit-p t :path "nnml+outlook:mail.dt2022#[...]" :format bracket :raw-link "gnus:nnml+outlook:mail.dt2022#[...]" :application nil :search-option nil)) nil)
org-open-at-point(nil)
funcall-interactively(org-open-at-point nil)
command-execute(org-open-at-point)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
with message reference elided.
I cannot really reduce this to a minimal example or use -Q due to need
to have gnus configured.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this? The vast majority of my TODO
entries have gnus email links and they have always worked just fine.
The problem could, of course, be with gnus but I cannot tell from the
above backtrace.
Thank you,
eric

A shot in the dark after looking at org-gnus-follow-link: what is the
value of org-link-frame-setup? Does it have the gnus entry?

Wow! What an excellent shot in the dark. :-)
I happened to play with the orgrr package which unfortunately actually
changes that variable. Resetting it to the default works just fine.
Many thanks.
It does beg the question: should org fail more gracefully and/or give an
error message in such a context?
Thanks again,
eric

Glad to be of help.

I quickly checked the usage of that defcustom and Org does not fall back
gracefully in other places too. While we can fix it, it would be good
to inform the maintainers of orgrr about this too.

I intend to. There are several bits of orgrr that stomp over the user's
preferences. Otherwise, it's an interesting package.
Thanks again,

The question is if nil should mean "Do not call any setup function at
all" or the default value should be used as a fallback.

Do you want to make a patch to that effect?
