b. 324

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

Slur to 3rd semiquaver in FE

Slur to 4th semiquaver in GE & EE
..

In FE, a slur led only to the 3rd semiquaver is certainly inaccurate. This was amended by the revisers of GE and EE. There is a similar situation in bar 328.

b. 324

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt III

..

EE added a cautionary  before f​​​​​​​2, which is, according to us, unnecessary.

b. 324-325

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

..

As in bars 321-322, Chopin did not write in A accidentals to the last semiquaver of each beat of these bars. All necessary accidentals were already added in GE (→FE,EE).

b. 324

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

in A

 in GE (→FE,IE) & EE2

No sign in EE1
..

In the main text we provide a  after A. In GE (→FE,IE) the mark was slightly moved and extended. The absence of the mark in EE1 is due to an oversight, corrected in EE2.

b. 325

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

 in EE & GC (→GE)

No marking in FE

Our suggestion
..

Just like in the case of other execution markings in this part (form b. 327), no  in FE  may have been Chopin's momentary lack of focus while writing [A2]. Since there is no  in any of the sources, we propose appropriate supplementation in b. 339.
