Just want to say I'm having the exact same issue with GNU Emacs 24.5.1.
Current workaround: if you make sure (evil-mode 1)
comes after (global-evil-tabs-mode t)
then the problem goes away. At least, it did for me.
I noticed a while ago that when first entering certain modes, the
evil-state
is unset and evil keybindings aren't available. If I exited those modes and then re-entered, evil keybindings would start working.I eliminated everything in my emacs configuration, and was able to reproduce the issue with just
evil-tabs
. I'm not very familiar withelisp
, so I'm not sure what is causing the issue.Here's the minimum configuration that reproduces the issue:
All packages have been installed using
package.el
usingmelpa
, and they're all up to date as of now.Once emacs launches, if I use
C-h f
to describe any function, and thenC-w C-w
to switch to the help window, evil keybindings are unavailable.If I
C-h v
to check he value ofevil-state
I get:At that point, after executing
C-h v
to check the value ofevil-state
, evil keybindings start working and if I checkevil-state
's value again I get:If I comment out
(global-evil-tabs-mode)
in my configuration, the issue is gone.I've noticed this issue in both
help-mode
andpackage-list-mode
, the latter of which I've changed tomotion
as it's initial evil state in my real emacs configuration.I'm running GNU Emacs 24.4.1, and I've had this issue on both mac and linux.
