[raylemon]

Describe the bug

Error running timer ‘corfu--auto-complete-deferred’: (error "ispell-lookup-words: No plain word-list found at systemdefault locations.  Customize ‘ispell-alternate-dictionary’ to set yours.") [3 times]

I use jinx, so, why it ask that ?

Emacs version Run M-x emacs-version and put its output here:

GNU Emacs 30.0.50 (build 1, x86_64-w64-mingw32)

Checkup list

Thanks for reporting this,

I didn't manage to reproduce this problem on Linux. Can you provide more details (a backtrace or more logs).

Edit: are you using the last commit or an older one?

[raylemon]

I’m on previous commit (85008d70c3e1467e79c6039e83d5051c36724401) I can’t provide any backtrace or log, the only message I have is ```Error running timer ‘corfu--auto-complete-deferred’: (error "ispell-lookup-words: No plain word-list found at systemdefault locations. Customize ‘ispell-alternate-dictionary’ to set yours.") [3 times]

At start, I see ```[Minemacs:LoadError] (void variable comp-async-buffer-name)```

@raylemon

The (void-variable comp-async-buffer-name) error seems to be related to Emacs 30. ~I will push a fix later~ I've pushed a fix for this.

---

I think the ispell issue is related to cape-dict not spell-fu. Can you try to put this in your config.el and see if it fixes the issue ?

(with-eval-after-load 'cape 
  (remove-hook 'completion-at-point-functions 'cape-dict))

[raylemon]

With your code, it’s work fine.

[abougouffa]

@raylemon Thanks for the feedback, I will disable it by default as I'm not really using it!

[raylemon]

Update: when I have tested your code, I have not opened any file. So, this error remains :

Error running timer ‘corfu--auto-complete-deferred’: (error "ispell-lookup-words: No plain word-list found at systemdefault locations.  Customize ‘ispell-alternate-dictionary’ to set yours.")

This message are shown every times a press any key…

[abougouffa]

Can you test again please ? @raylemon

[raylemon]

With last commit (ed2bae5), this error still remains

Error running timer ‘corfu--auto-complete-deferred’: (error "ispell-lookup-words: No plain word-list found at systemdefault locations.  Customize ‘ispell-alternate-dictionary’ to set yours.")

[abougouffa]

To be sure we are using the same package versions, please run M-x minemacs-update-restore-locked. Wait for it to finish, then restart Emacs (maybe you need to wait a little bit for it to rebuild updated packages).

Then if you can try to run MINEMACS_DEBUG=1 emacs (or something similar on Windows, you need to set the environment variable MINEMACS_DEBUG. This way we might catch a traceback of the error.

[abougouffa]

@raylemon

I suspect also this to be caused by some old custom variable in ~/.minemacs.d/custom-vars.el, can you check if this file contains some ispell related config?

[raylemon]

I have this in custom-vars

(custom-set-variables
 ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
 ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
 ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
 ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
 '(ignored-local-variable-values '((org-export-in-background)))

(custom-set-faces
 ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
 ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
 ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
 ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.

 '(fixed-pitch-serif ((t (:inherit default))))
 '(mode-line ((t (:family "Lato" :weight regular))))
 '(mode-line-inactive ((t (:family "Lato" :weight regular))))
 '(variable-pitch ((t (:family "Lato")))))

[abougouffa]

Well it seems clean!

@raylemon Did you run these steps ?

To be sure we are using the same package versions, please run M-x minemacs-update-restore-locked. Wait for it to finish, then restart Emacs (maybe you need to wait a little bit for it to rebuild updated packages).

Then if you can try to run MINEMACS_DEBUG=1 emacs (or something similar on Windows, you need to set the environment variable MINEMACS_DEBUG. This way we might catch a traceback of the error.

[raylemon]

I’ll do this now.

[raylemon]

Error still remains

[abougouffa]

I see now.

The issue seems to be related to ispell-completion-at-point which is a new feature in Emacs 30.0.50.

I stopped using Emacs 30 for my daily work because it is unstable, at least, when taking into account that third party packages used in MinEmacs doesn't support Emacs 30 yet.

I highly recommend to use Emacs 29 instead (in my machines, I always compile the latest commit in emacs-29 branch.

[abougouffa]

@raylemon

You can try to temporary ignore errors in ispell-completion-at-point (until you compile Emacs 29 for example) by dropping this in your config.el

(with-eval-after-load 'ispell
  (advice-add 'ispell-completion-at-point :around (lambda (origfn &rest args) (ignore-errors (apply origfn args)))))

[raylemon]

I have both emacs 30 and emacs 29. v30 seems faster than v29, but I’ll wait for some stability. Thanks !
