dnd-unescape-uri is undefined

Question

After updating packages from MELPA, I'm getting the message:

Warning (emacs): dnd-unescape-uri is undefined. Some things may not work.

It is a separate buffer. Not in the messages buffer. I can just close the buffer and Emacs seems to be working alright.

I'm using Emacs 27.1 with the Spacemacs layer.

Two questions: Is this dangerous? And what can I do about this?

Same problem for me today. Are you using `org-ref`? This could be related to this issue: https://github.com/jkitchin/org-ref/issues/812 — Philopolis, Nov 26 '20 at 11:50

Same problem for me after updating org-ref. It is linked to the fix related to the issue mentioned by @Philopolis: https://github.com/jkitchin/org-ref/commit/a7d24f48fe6416162cb1f32d9b87934b9e6c563d

If you want to avoid this warning message at startup, a (temporary) solution is to set

(setq warning-minimum-level :emergency)
