Thank you.

I switched to emacs25 already (since this bug report). So far, no changes. > - Could you fix #829299 based on the private e-mails we exchanged a few > weeks ago, please? I already pushed (but not released) fix for #829299 (d057d2). Do you want me to release it right now? Or Should we wait wait for resolution of current (#847040) bug -- either upstream releases new version, either we are forced to disable tests. -- X-Web-Site: https://sinsekvu.github.io | Note that I process my email in batch, Accept-Languages: eo,ru,en | at most once every 24 hours.
