Process global is not active in tramp mode?

[baron]

I frequently get strange buffer errors when using ggtags over tramp. Usually the errors don't go away and if I "q" the debugger the same error pops up repeatedly making emacs unusable. I can make the main error go away by evaling (get-buffer-create " *ggtags-definition*") after which things run smoothly for a while.

Function called: ggtags-find-tag-dwim aka M-.

It seems like the buffer handling creates weird race conditions. I'm not sure if this is tramp specific but it's the only environment that I use ggtags in at the moment.

This library is a godsend and I am very grateful for it. Thank you very much for the great work!!

What happens if you turn of debug-on-error?

Everything works smoothly lol

Is this the expected behavior? I guess I shouldn't have debug on error on for giggles.

Thanks for the response and once again amazing library, literally the best and makes tag jumping a real joy to use with zero configuration.

I guess I can remove my clunky advice function ;)
