I wonder where I have that file. I couldn't find `org-install.el'
anywhere but it seems to work fine here without. What is it needed for?
Speed up things, I guess? As I never compile Org-mode, I never used that
file.

Yes - and we should remove all the *.elc files first (which I missed),
in case some are obsolete after a `git pull'.
Could be done via dired again:

   (dired-mark-files-regexp "\\.el$")
   (setq list-of-org-files (dired-get-marked-files))
   ;; ADD THIS:
   ;; this deletes obsolete files:
   (dolist (f list-of-org-files)
     (delete-file (concat f "c")))
