upgrade from 8.2 to 9.2 breaks agenda timestamp font?

[David Belohrad]

Dear all,

I have upgraded after some time org-plus-contrib through elpa to version 20180312, and quite some things stopped working. Most of them I have found, and have been related to usage of sexp in capture template, but there's one I'm struggling to find.

My org-agenda now displays incorrectly the timestamps, which have only one bound. So if I make timestamp like:

Entered on <2018-03-12 Mon 23:21-23:59>

that timestamp is correctly displayed in the agenda, however when I make only this one:

Entered on <2018-03-12 Mon 23:21>

this one displays the starting time, followed by combination of useless letters, partly arabic, japanese and completely breaks the appearance of the agenda.

What did I forget to migrate when upgrading org-mode? I don't find anything related to such behaviour in the changelog.

many thanks

.d.

I don't think this format is legal for a timestamp.

What happens if you start with 'emacs -q -l /path/to/minimal/init.el' (i.e. bypassing most of your init file)?

hello both,

yesterday evening i found by chance what it was. Problem of changed definition of org-agenda-time-grid? Following definition is valid for org8, but not org9:

(setq org-agenda-time-grid '((daily require-timed)
                             "--------------------"
                             (800  900
				   1000
				   1100
				   1200
				   1300
				   1400
				   1500
				   1600
				   1700
				   1800
				   1900
				   2000
				   2100
				   2200)))

I have removed that (anyways, not too often used), and the problem disappeared.

thanks

I suggest to read the "Incompatible changes" section for both Org 9.0
and Org 9.1 in ORG-NEWS.
