0006750: Muck root and bloated tuber seeds are displayed without a name (e.g. " [9]")
I embarked with 3 empty wild boar leather bags. 2 of them are now laying around in my still, empty - presumably after having seeds taken out of them - but claiming that they still have Contents.

Pressing Enter to "view selected" gives the details that this Nothing has a basic value of 1 dwarfbuck, and a weight less than 1 Urist. Its description reads "This is a ."

My dwarves are piling up individual seeds in the stockpile now, so presumably the game thinks those wild boar leather bags are unavailable for more seeds.
Dump seeds from a bag? Might need to be a bag brought from embark.
No tags attached.

What jobs was your still performing? Which plants were in use?
(0025214)

Brew plants. I don't remember which plants exactly were in use, but some combination of prickle berry, turnips, and/or longland grass.

So you were using "brew drink from plant" and not "brew drink from fruit"?

Definitely brew from plant. I didn't have any fruits yet at that time.

Thanks for the follow-ups...I'm going to leave this as feedback for now in case anyone can zero-in on the specific seed or reaction problem.

I submitted a bug report under 6841 that is likely the cause of this issue. Brewing muck root (or likely anything that does not have a seed entry in the raws causes items without a description to appear)

Ooh, I do think I brewed a bloated tuber earlier! So those might have been bloated tuber "seeds"?

I haven't seen this since 0.40.1; it may be fixed already.

Still happening in my current game wich was migrated from 0.40.12 to 0.40.13 during previous reclaim. Seeds were in still by still till reclaim. Save is centered on there current location.
Here is a save.

hide root and bloated tuber. They're both missing [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:SEED:SEED_TEMPLATE].

For anyone who's seriously bothered by this bug, there's a workaround.

Create a material in each of the offending plants (I called mine FAKESEED) with [SPEC_HEAT:1] and [HEATDAM_POINT:1]. Then replace [MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT:SEED_MAT:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:SEED] with [MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT:SEED_MAT:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:FAKESEED] in the STRUCTURAL definition. The fake seed will disintegrate immediately after being produced.

This had to be fixed in the raws, so the fix will only apply to 0.40.24+. I also added some new error logs to highlight these sorts of problems.
