Yeah, sorry... I've just been posting the explicitly relevant stuff. I have contrib/lisp in there as well for other stuff as well as the scripts dir for ditta (I think that's why that's there). > M-x locate-library <RET> org <RET> > M-x locate-library <RET> org-clock <RET> > That's *fantastic*. Had no idea. I will definitely try that. Specifically (kicking myself as I write this and realize what a dummy I was), I want to remove the loading of ~/.elisp/org.git, restart emacs and see what it's using. Then I want to check my prefix in the orgmode Makefile. Again, shivering as I write this, I realize I never checked that and am now thinking that 'make install' installed to /usr perhaps while all the default directories are, say, at /usr/local.
