helm-resume not working for me on develop

[YayC]

Description

helm-resume is not working for me on the develop branch. I get helm-resume: No helm buffers found to resume Any help debugging this would be much appreciated.

C-x C-b (list-buffers) shows some helm buffers like:

* *helm-mode-descr...     579 Hmm              

Reproduction guide 🪲

• Start Emacs (evil, develop branch)
• C-h f RET q to open and quit helm
• SPC r l

Observed behaviour: 👀 💔
Error: helm-resume: No helm buffers found to resume

Expected behaviour: ❤️ 😄
Helm reopens ready to filter functions

helm-resume doesn't resume any helm session, just search-type ones (SPC /, SPC ss and such).

This easily reproduces in emacs -q so it's certainly a helm issue.

This is working for me now on develop-- SPC r l

As a separate question, is it possible to resume describe-function? For example was exploring the evil-avy-* functions, would be awesome to hop back to the list without filtering again.

Edit: looks like using TAB to select kind of works, but it doesn't focus the new window so I can't figure out how to follow links to source

[TheBB]

No, you can't resume all kinds of helm sessions. (For whatever reason.) For that please consider following the original label and report upstream. :-)

Closing since fixed.
