bug#24098: 25.1; Auto complete not working

[David Gomes]

The first line seems to be related with Emacs Code Browser,so

I decided to M-x ecb-deactivate and then restart Emacs without

Emacs Code Browser at all.

This was the output of my *Messages* buffer as I tried to autocomplete.

ECB 2.40 uses CEDET 2.0 (contains semantic 2.2, eieio 1.4, speedbar 1.0).

All requirements for ECB 2.40 fulfilled - Enjoy it!

The ECB is now activated.

There are no NEWS to display.

No more tree-buffer errors but auto-complete still not working. I think you

should just ignore the first line of output in the original bug report.

Look into your customizations, particularly something that activates
the tree-buffer feature (which AFAIK is not part of Emacs).
