org-duration-from-minutes was called with canonical = t, but without
providing a corresponding format only using the canonical units. This
broke if the user’s org-duration-format used other than the canonical units.

I think a proper fix would be to change `org-duration-from-minutes' so
it removes any unknown unit from what is provided from fmt or
`org-duration-format', and defaults to (special . h:mm) if nothing is
left.

WDYT?

Hi Anders,

Did you have any thoughts on Nicolas’ comments?

Hi,
Oh, I sent a response but failed to send it to the list and only to
Nicolas (hard to do things right using the gmail web interface)
I include it below:

Perhaps. I don't understand `org-duration-from-minutes` well enough to
change it. I guess the stripping of unknown units from fmt or
`org-duration-format` would then have to compare either against
`org-duration-units` or `org-duration-canonical-units` depending on
the canonical argument. But the full logic of
org-duration-from-minutes escapes me.
I also noted that the only other invocations of
`org-duration-from-minutes` with the canonical argument is in
`org-columns--format-age` (where a format is provided).
Overall the interaction of these functions across the codebase seems
quite complex now.

You don't really need to understand it. I suggest using a filter as the
very first step of the function.

Exactly.

Included is a patch for the filtering (I assumed cl-intersection was
reasonable to use since cl-lib is a requirement).

However, I do not think this is enough, since it can cause quite
unexpected results when canonical is used without specifying the
format, Hence, I do think the previous patch should also be applied.

For my case, org-duration-format is (("m") ("w") ("d") (special . h:mm)).
This call to org-duration-from-minutes (like in org-agenda-format-item):

(org-duration-from-minutes MINUTES nil t)

will then result in a full format amounting to (("d")), (since
"special" is not part of the canonical units), which is hardly what is
expected for the agenda.

Best,
Anders Johansson

 [PATCH] Ensure valid duration format in org-duration-from-minutes

Filter out any elements of the duration format that is not in
org-duration-units or org-duration-canonical-units.

The patch breaks tests and thus cannot be applied.

May you please provide more details about the original problem you were
trying to solve? Preferably with a reproducer.
