Hi,

The method org-agenda-show-clocking-issues has a faulty regex, which 
leads to false-positive
clocking issues: " Clocked: +(-\\|\\([0-9]+:[0-9]+\\))"

There is no outer group to limit the OR-expression \\|, so the right 
half will match timestamps with
a closing parenthesis without any "Clocked" in front of it.

I added a non-capturing group in the attached patch: " Clocked: 
+(\\(?:-\\|\\([0-9]+:[0-9]+\\)\\))".


Reproduction:

Define a custom agenda:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands '(("d" "Clock report for today" agenda ""
                                     ((org-agenda-span 1)
(org-agenda-start-with-clockreport-mode t)
                                      (org-agenda-start-with-log-mode 
'clockcheck)))))

Use an org file that is included in org-agenda-files, and add this 
sample headline:
Sample headline with time and closing parenthesis in it (it happened at 
12:00)

Clock in and out of the headline, make sure the clock timespan is at 
least 1 minute, and open the
agenda defined above. Observe that the headline is reported as 
overlapping with itself, as the
faulty regex will match twice on its agenda line.

Best Regards,
Tim

Subject: [PATCH] org-agenda.el: Fix clocking issues regex

* org-agenda.el (org-agenda-show-clocking-issues): Fix regex to prevent false-positive clocking
issue detection.

Regex was missing a grouping to restrict the alternative \| to the
literal parentheses.
