When prompted for "Snail Mail Address Label [RET when done]", if I enter the key "Enter", then the loop "Street, line N" begins, even I enter an empty string. If I enter a space, then I would be prompted for "Phone Label [RET when done]".

It seems the input for the prompt contains words "[RET when done]" malfunctions.

The fresh emacs configuration don't have this bug.

Later I found the problem:

(require-package 'ido-ubiquitous)
(ido-ubiquitous-mode t))

A workaround is to comment the above lines.

I am sorry, you need to provide more info. What happens if you enter an empty string when you are prompted for "Street, line N"? This should terminate the loop and certainly it does that for me. Also, what happens if, instead of inserting a new address, you try to edit an existing address? Can you then terminate the loop by entering an empty string?

Hi,

I don't know since when this problem appears:

When I try to create a new contact in Emacs, after inserting "Snail mail address label",

I was required for

"Street, line 1"

"Street, line 2"

"Street, line 3"
...

I can't finish the creation, do you know why?

Pan, Senshan <magichowl>
