Perhaps this will lead to something. Sure. https://github.com/novoid/dot-emacs/blob/master/config.org contains: | (setq my-user-emacs-directory "~/.emacs.d/") | (use-package org-depend | :load-path (lambda () (expand-file-name (concat my-user-emacs-directory "contrib/org-mode/contrib/lisp/"))) | ) ... which loads org-depend from my maint Org mode (currently: 9.3 (release_9.3-102-gd20e45.dirty @ mixed installation![...]). I only use org-depend for: * TODO Example 1 :PROPERTIES: :ID: 2020-02-20-foo :END: * TODO Example 2 :PROPERTIES: :BLOCKER: 2020-02-20-foo :END: Very rarely, I am using: * TODO Example 3 :PROPERTIES: :TRIGGER: 2020-02-20-foo :END: Most of the time, source-destination are within the same file. However, in some cases of using BLOCKER, the two headings might be in two different files. That's basically it: mostly BLOCKER and a few TRIGGER. I'm unsure if there is currently a TRIGGER that is still waiting to be activated. (By the way: is there a built-in feature to look for IDs that are linked somewhere (BLOCKER properties or ID links) that are broken?) Ad "what goes wrong when you do it": in my daily work, org-depend is working fine. The only thing that does not work is exporting my agenda with: | emacs --batch --load /home/vk/.emacs.d/init.el --eval '(progn (my-export-agenda))' and: | (defun my-export-agenda() | "Exports Org-mode agenda to ics file" | (interactive) | (save-some-buffers) | | ;; I don't want the error messages in my exported agenda: | (setq org-agenda-files (remove "~/org/errors.org" org-agenda-files)) | | (setq max-specpdl-size 10000) ;; does not solve issue | (setq max-lisp-eval-depth 50000) ;; does not solve issue | | (org-agenda-list nil nil 60) | (org-agenda-write (concat my-user-emacs-directory "var/export/agenda-export.ics")) | ) With disabled org-depend, it is working and finishes in ~5 minutes. With enabled org-depend it (sometimes) end up in an error as described. This can take hours. > I've never used org-edna, I'm curious to know if there are many users. Me too ;-) It's a bit more complicated in syntax but has advanced features org-depend does not offer. The main reason why I'm thinking of switching is that org-edna supports something like TRIGGER that also adds relative SCHEDULED date-stamps. This allows for "if $THAT task gets done, mark $NEXT task as a TODO item and add a SCHEDULED with three days in the future" which is very handy in some cases. > Thanks, Oh, it's me, who is very thankful, considering the tricky situation to investigate this issue. -- get mail|git|SVN|photos|postings|SMS|phonecalls|RSS|CSV|XML into Org-mode: > get Memacs from https://github.com/novoid/Memacs < Personal Information Management > http://Karl-Voit.at/tags/pim/ Emacs-related > http://Karl-Voit.at/tags/emacs/
