This is my setup in .emacs; it runs without problems version after version. You are encouraged to simplify the path schema of org-mode branches I use.
Minimal sequence for me is: make clean & git pull & make autoloads & make info
;; .emacs begins
;;
;; activate debugging
(setq debug-on-error t
debug-on-signal nil
debug-on-quit nil)
;;

;; clean load-path
(setq load-path
(delq nil (mapcar
(function (lambda (p)
(unless (string-match "lisp\\(/packages\\)?/org$" p)
p)))
load-path)))
;; remove property list to defeat cus-load and remove autoloads
(mapatoms (function (lambda (s)

(when (eq 'autoload (car-safe s))
(unintern s)))))))

Subject: [O] Installing from gitHello. I'm quite confused with the installation options.
Recently started out a Debian base system and compiled Emacs from the bzr repository. That came out fine, so I ran 'make install' and now Emacs 24.4.50 sits in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/share, etc.
I want to install the master branch of org-mode. Currently I followed these steps:
- cd ~/org_from_git/
- git clone git://orgmode.org/org-mode.git
¿Do i need to tweak 'local.mk' so the prefix variable points to /usr/local/share before running make?
¿Which make option should i use (besides 'make autoloads')?
Thanks in advance.
