Here's the strangest thing I've encountered in emacs for awhile. I just started a new session, and BBDB still wasn't working. I hit C-x C-b to list the buffers and it informed me of this buffer:
bbdb 20446 Emacs-Lisp ~/.emacs.d/bbdb As far as I know, I have no file named "bbdb"---mine is ".bbdb". So I thought, well, this explains it. A ghost file is loading for some reason. And indeed, this buffer contains no data beyond a header. So, I began to compose this post to mention this. I went to the buffer list again, and saw: .bbdb 20446 Emacs-Lisp ~/.emacs.d/.bbdb It fixed itself when I looked away. BBDB is now working perfectly again. -steven arntson "Barak A.
