(powerline-central-evil-theme) stopped working after update

rubin55 opened this issue · comments

Been using powerline with powerline-central-evil-theme like so for the last 2ish years:

;; Enable powerline status bar.
(require 'powerline)
(powerline-center-evil-theme

As of today or yesterday, that stopped working: I get a blank powerline. Commenting out (powerline-center-evil-theme) makes powerline display (albeit not very prettily). Setting another theme, like (powerline-center-theme) seems to work, looking as expected.

To summarize:

With (powerline-center-evil-theme):
with-powerline-center-evil-theme

With (powerline-center-theme):
with-powerline-center-theme

I have reverted what I think was the offending change. Please allow a day for this to propagate to MELPA then let me know if you have more issues or any other ideas about what went wrong.

Also please post more detailed reproductions instructions.

I have reverted what I think was the offending change

The culprit is #164, not #163. My bad, sorry. (I did not fully test powerline-center-evil-theme since all I got was a blank mode-line before my change, which I now realize was due to not having an evil-mode-line-tag variable set...)

The easy fix is to revert the parts of #164 that apply to powerline-center-evil-theme, but then powerline-center-evil-theme's mode-line will still look a bit peculiar when inactive. I'll see if I can make a better fix.

I can confirm that at least as of today, powerline-central-evil-theme works as expected :-)
