Hi Philip! On 08.08.2020 19:42, Philip K. wrote:
after loading project.el into Emacs 26.3, I noticed that project-find-regexp doesn't work, because the xref--show-xrefs function has changed it's parameter interpretation. While project.el assumes it accepts a function, 26.3's Xref assumes it will recieve a list ("xrefs"). There command then fails with a somewhat cryptic error message, that probably doesn't make sense for Elisp programmers.
Thank you very much for testing this.
I managed to fix this by installing a newer Xref version from ELPA, but I think this situation should be handled more gracefully. Is there a reason that project.el doesn't depend on the newer Xref version?
Unfortunately, that would make project.el and xref recursively depend on each other. And apparently that would be a problem: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2020-05/msg01615.html
I'm not sure what's the best way to fix this.
