bug#43813: [BUG] current-message not working with minibuffer-message

[pinkanon pinkanon]

Hmm, no, I am using emacs 27 and assumed this wouldn't work as I wasn't aware of this behavior. So, the minibuffer-messages are queued then? Well, interesting. I must say it wasn't really apparent from the minibuffer-message doc. It would be great if a note could be added there.

 

Anyway, thanks for taking the time to understand my problem.

 Here's an example:
  
 ;; someone else's code (minibuffer-message "important message") // flycheck, whatever
 ;; ...
 ;; my code soon after:
 ;; (unless (current-message) (minibuffer-message "unimportant info"))
 echo area: "unimportant info" instead of "important info"

When I run this, I first see "important message" displayed for 2 sec,
then "unimportant message" is displayed. So no important message
seems to be overwritten.

Are you doing this in Emacs 27?
