在议程视图中具有重复时间戳的项目排序错误？

Question

I am using Emacs org-mode. Assume it is 2012-11-10 (today) and I have a TODO item:

**** LATER [#D] call John                       :phone:
     SCHEDULED: <2012-07-23 Mon .+1m>
     - State "DONE"       from "TODO"       [2012-06-23 Sat 12:21]
     :PROPERTIES:
     :LAST_REPEAT: [2012-06-23 Sat 12:21]
     :END:

In the agenda view that I get with Ctrl-c a a this shows up as:

  TODO:       Sched.19x:  LATER [#D] call John                      :phone:

and is sorted among the other items that have a SCHEDULED date 19 days ago. However, the item above has not been worked on for almost four months, so it should actually be sorted among the items SCHEDULED on <2012-07-23 Mon> (~110 days ago).

I consider this a bug, but I wanted to know whether there is any option I could try to fix that behavior. I have searched the internet for over an hour but did not find a solution.

Answer 1

It's not a bug but the expected behavior.

You scheduled the task with the repeated interval

SCHEDULED: <2012-07-23 Mon .+1m >

which means that the task is kinda re-scheduled every month. The last time it was 2012-10-27, 19 days ago.

You can remove the repeated interval

SCHEDULED: <2012-07-23 Mon> 

then the task will be shown as scheduled 110 days ago.
