Hi,
I get an error from org-element-context if I have set org-return-follows-link to t and hit RET after an empty desc list item. Here is what I mean by that:
===== org buffer =====
- desc123 ::<RET>
<RET>
=====
To better recreate this issue, save the below elisp code to a temp file, say t.el, and run,
emacs -q -l t.el
(Verify that emacs -q loads the master branch (dev) org-mode version. It does for me as I install the dev org-mode to "share/emacs/site-lisp/org".)
===== t.el =====
(setq inhibit-startup-screen t)
(setq org-return-follows-link t) ; Commenting this line with mask this bug
(toggle-debug-on-error)
(pop-to-buffer-same-window (get-buffer-create "*org-temp*"))
(org-mode)
(insert "- desc123 ::\n")
(org-return)
=====
On doing so, you should get an error backtrace like below:
=====
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (search-failed "desc123")
search-forward("desc123" 14)
org-element-context()
org-return()
=====
*I do not get this error if I set org-return-follows-link back to its default value of nil.*
I am using the following org-mode and emacs versions:
=====
