Hi Glenn

might be related to some indexing issue.

customize py-imenu-create-index-p to nil should avoid this anyway.

I'm testing with Emacs24 too from time to time and it passed as Emacs23 so far.

Nonetheless Emacs24 got some major changes and has some issues still.
Unless actively developing it, recommend Emacs23 for all productive work.

As for the rest, let's try to solve the knot by doing it one by one.

- disable all optional features as outline-mode - customize py-outline-minor-mode-p nil


If you still encounter some issues with latest release, please send an example file which triggers it, resp. make a bug report.

Best regards,

Andreas
