At one point I was unable to archive subtrees because some function was undefined. I uninstalled 9.2.6 and the issues was fixed. > I have the built-in 9.1.9 org that > comes with emacs but I run (close to) latest master and I see no > problems: Obviously you are not the typical user... :) What should happen is that 1) packages.el should see that I'm trying to install a package that requires 9.2.6 as a dependency and it should notify me that 9.1.9 is already installed and do I really want to do that, etc. 2) *or* just consider that it's better for me to use 9.2.6 instead of whatever comes with emacs and make sure that the older package is forgotten by emacs. But honestly, I think 1) should be the default for any package. Jean-Christophe Helary ----------------------------------------------- http://mac4translators.blogspot.com @brandelune
