Thank you for your report!
Now, I don't have Emacs 24.3.1. so I will check it later.

[dreki]

I'm encountering this as well. Please fix.

I don't get let*: as part of my error message.

Removing .edbi-ds-history fixed my issue.

@Gosha , @dreki
Sorry for my late response.

I checked edbi on 24.3.1 and 24.3.50.1, but I could not reproduce the situation.
My some packages have been reported some troubles around cl package and byte-compiling.
Will you remove compiled elc files and recompile el files?

[tomterl]

Hi,

Do you mean recompile only for edbi *.el files, or everything in emacs?

I have the same problem (End of file during parsing the history save file).
I installed via github and freshly byte-compiled everything, to no avail.

The problem persists. emacs 24.3.1, e2wm and edbi freshly cloned.

EDIT: I double checked and manually loaded only the necessary libraries in an emacs -Q instance, and then the problem is nonexistant! So it's my/our setup. I'll try to get behind that (probably a shadowed library or some such, wouldn#t be the first time).

kind regards,
Tom

I found the culprit: saveplace

I have the following in my setup

 (require 'saveplace)                                                                                                                                                           
 (setq-default save-place t)

Once I disable this, everythings fine; It's logical of course. I have a small patch that prevents that, let's see if I can provide a Pull Request.

Hi @tomterl,
Thank you for your report!
I'll check saveplace.el.

Well, if you feel that edbi has too many histories, will you try the customize variable edbi:ds-history-list-num (default value is 10) ?

[kiwanami]

I checked saveplace.el and I understand the problem.
I would include your patch.
