wrong-type-argument listp for `describe-function` #340

Closed divyaranjan1905 closed 5 months ago

divyaranjan1905 commented 5 months ago

I have tried installing helpful from both straight.el and package.el and it shows error in both of those. helpful-variable works fine as expected, but helpful-function when selected a function gives: Wrong type argument: listp, "/path/to/package/build/package.elc

When uninstalled, describe-function works just as expected.

This error is produced on GNU Emacs 30.0.50 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.41, cairo version 1.18.0) of 2024-03-11.

Regards, Divya.

It was an issue unrelated to helpful, but rather with org-ref installing hydra.
