from an earlier thread, I recall you mentioned you were using
native
compilation? This is almost certainly the cause of your problem.
This does smell like a byte-compilation problem.
Seems to be a failure with any interactive, single-character
%-escaped patterns in a template string (e.g. %^g, %^C, %^t).
I've narrowed it down to a call to pcase in
`org-capture-fill-template'.
As Eric mentions, the problem disappears if the function is
re-evaluated/instrumented.
I have disabled native compilation and the problem persists with
just a freshly byte-compiled elc of org-capture.
Tested this with the following recipe:
1. eval the following:
(org-capture-fill-template "%^t") ;fails with `unrecognized
template placeholder: %^t`
2. eval org-capture-fill-template's definition, and then re-eval
the above. Works properly. User is prompted for a time.
3. byte compile org-capture-fill-template: (byte-compile
#'org-capture-fill-template)
4. eval (org-capture-fill-template "%^t") ; error is back
