Package: bbdb Version: 2.35.cvs20040528-1 Followup-For: Bug #345186
The problem seems to be that emacs21.4a-3 does not make the bbdb-autoloads.el .. this is similar to bug #345297 My very rough fix for this bug (and possibly 344032 and 345297)) apt-get install --reinstall emacs21 wait for the 'compiling bbdb, this takes loooonngg' message, and then (quickly) wget http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/bbdb-autoloads.el and place this file in /usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/bbdb if I did that in time, there are no errors reported on bbdb (check the compile log in tmp/) That was not quite it: I also had to add the following three lines to my start up files, to get gnus and bbdb back to their brilliant work. (setq load-path (cons (concat "/usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/bbdb") load-path)) (setq load-path (cons (concat "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/bbdb/lisp") load-path)) (load-library "bbdb-gnus" -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing'), (650, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14-2-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages bbdb depends on: ii emacs21 [emacsen] 21.4a-3 The GNU Emacs editor ii make 3.80+3.81.b4-1 The GNU version of the "make" util bbdb recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
