partial-completion-mode seems to cause a problem when one tries to
delete a symlink to a non-existent file.
Try this:
ln -s BLAHBLAHBLAH /tmp/DELETEME
(this assumes that neither BLAHBLAHBLAH nor /tmp/DELETEME exist before
running ln).
emacs -q
M-x partial-completion-mode RET
M-x delete-file RET /tmp/DELETEME RET
instead of deleting /tmp/DELETEME the minibuffer shows:
Delete file: /tmp/DELETEME [Confirm]
Pressing RET does not do anything...
If the symlink target for /tmp/DELETEME exists, then /tmp/DELETEME is
deleted just fine...
