Agenda bug: time conflict between headline and scheduled date

Agenda bug: time conflict between headline and scheduled date

Hi,

there's a bug when I have a task like this:

    * Test [2012-12-26 Wed 22:24]
      SCHEDULED: <2012-12-25 Wed>

Note that the inactive date has a time in the headline, but the schedule
date doesn't.

When I run the agenda, I get this:

    Tuesday    25 December 2012
      GTD:        22:24...... Scheduled:  Test [2012-12-26 Wed 22:24]

The time should not be extracted from the non-scheduled timestamp,
right?

I'm running 7.9.2 on emacs 24.2.1 on OS X

Thanks,
Huy

Yes.  Mixing time-stamps for a single entry is known to cause problems,
and this is one of them.  Better to put the inactive time-stamp outside
of the headline.

Hi Huy,

I depend on inactive timestamps in headlines, because they are useful
when the entries are folded.  I sort by time, which eliminates the
need for date trees.

But the problem of grabbing a time from the headline is solvable:

  (setq org-agenda-search-headline-for-time nil)

Indeed, thanks a lot for the pointers!
