Control: severity -1 critical due to data loss.
I have the same issue. Worse, in one of my tests, where I tried various things before quitting Emacs (without saving the file, because this is just not possible due to this bug), like switching the current buffer (which had no effect), the file got removed! However, I can't reproduce that, and I don't remember what I did exactly. I suspect that Emacs got in an inconsistent state. Well, after typing "C-x C-s", the file is no longer there, and I cannot see any backup! A C-g restores it, but apparently, not after some condition. Anyway, the fact that the file is temporarily removed is a major issue.

But gnupg2 has also been upgraded from 2.2.40-3 to 2.2.43-3, though. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
