Message #5 received at submit <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):
Start emacs and start editing a file called abcdef:
C-x C-f abcdef RET
In that buffer type abcde and then press M-/ to run dabbrev-expand.
Desired result: dabbrev looks at the buffer name (or the name of the
file it is visiting) and uses that to complete the string to 'abcdef'.
It could use the names of all open buffers as part of its pool.
Current result: No dynamic expansion for 'abcde' found
This would be useful in many programming languages where the filename
usually matches the name of a class or function. It is common to create
the file first and start typing the code.

Makes sense to me. I've now added this to Emacs 29.

Now dabbrev fails with:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Selecting deleted buffer")
dabbrev--find-expansion("dabbr" -1 t)
dabbrev-expand(nil)
funcall-interactively(dabbrev-expand nil)
command-execute(dabbrev-expand)
because dabbrev--last-buffer is a killed buffer in dabbrev--find-expansion:
(setq dabbrev--last-buffer
(pop dabbrev--friend-buffer-list))
(set-buffer dabbrev--last-buffer)
I don't see how can it not fail when the temporary buffer
"*abbrev-file*" gets added to dabbrev--friend-buffer-list:
(setq dabbrev--friend-buffer-list
(append dabbrev--friend-buffer-list
(list file-name-buffer))))
and then gets deleted afterwards:
(when (buffer-live-p file-name-buffer)
(kill-buffer file-name-buffer))))))))
So dabbrev--friend-buffer-list always contains '(... #<killed buffer>)
at the end, and at the next call to dabbrev--last-buffer causes the error.

Yup. This should now be fixed on the trunk.
