After the latest MELPA updates, I receive this error message upon every buffer related operation, e.g. C-x b, C-x C-b, or trying to kill or expand the current buffer etc:

Error in post-command-hook (elscreen-run-screen-update-hook): (error "Format specifier doesn’t match argument type") [6 times]

Hi. In my case, this error happens if (elscreen-start) is missing in the Emacs init file (e.g. ~/.emacs, ~/.emacs.d/init.el, or the file indicated by (eval custom-file)). Try adding (elscreen-start) in your Emacs init file.
