"Action was taken on a missing chunk" during three-way merges

Reproducing steps:

  • do a three-way merge
  • have a chunk that is available only on the rightmost side
  • in the middle panel, press Alt-Left

A backtrace appears on the console:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/meld/filediff.py", line 572, in action_push_change_left
    self.replace_chunk(src, dst, self.get_action_chunk(src, dst))
  File "/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/meld/filediff.py", line 562, in get_action_chunk
    raise ValueError("Action was taken on a missing chunk")
ValueError: Action was taken on a missing chunk
