I have a strange situation on my laptop.
I'm running Ubuntu 16.04, with Emacs 24.5.1. I'm also using the latest
development branch from the org-mode git repository (latest changes
pulled today).
Recently, for some unknown reason, emacs suddenly started to hang on
startup. Placing some output messages in my .emacs file I was able to
narrow it down to this line:
(require 'org)
Loading org-mode hangs Emacs for some reason. If I remove the above line
from .emacs then Emacs will start as normal (although without org-mode,
obviously).
I tried creating a minimal-org.el file with the following contents:
;; activate debugging
(setq debug-on-error t
debug-on-signal nil
debug-on-quit nil)
;; add latest org-mode to load path
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/elisp/org-mode/lisp"))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name
"~/elisp/org-mode/contrib/lisp" t))
And then running:
$ emacs -Q -l minimal-org.el
...but I still get the same result (Emacs hangs when I run `M-x (require
'org)`).
Can anyone help tell me what's wrong, or suggest how I try and track
down the problem?
