When you install BBDB from the tar ball, you need the above configure option. But if you got BBDB from melpa, there is no tar ball and the configure option should not be needed either. So I expect that your problem is something else and I am wondering: Have you followed the instructions in the README file how to configure BBDB in your .emacs? Then, what are you expecting to get and what are you getting instead? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Announcing the Oxford Dictionaries API!
