Another alternative: * Patch org-mode in Debian (and upstream?) such that the checkboxes in the list of checkboxes returned by `M-x customize-variables RET org-modules` are "greyed out" (i.e. cannot be ticked) if the corresponding contributed extension cannot be found on the current Emacs load-path. Ideally, attempting to tick them should produce some kind of notification to the user that they are greyed out for that reason, e.g. "Cannot find org-depend.el. Please ensure that this file is present in a directory on the Emacs load-path." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
