(load-library org-compat.el) (load-library org-odt.el) If the problem is where I think it is, then a (require 'org-compat) should be a valid workaround until the final fix is in Org. Does this mean there are possibly more things that did not load as they should? The combination of the version of Org in your version of Emacs and a more recent Org can't be expected to work correctly in all cases unless you add one of the requires I've shown. Regards, Achim.

Dear Jambunathan, Again, thanks a lot for all your feedback.

It seems you are OK with runnning a non-released/unstable Emacs. This is the latest version of Aquamacs (http://aquamacs.org/), version 2.4. On a Mac, Aquamacs is by far the most convenient Emacs implementation I know of, if only for the antialiased font support and how easily font sizes are changed. The development version of Aquamacs uses Emacs 24, but I would like to avoid using that Aquamacs version before it is stable. Anyway, I assume I am not the only Aquamacs user on this list :) So, if the reported problem is due to Aquamacs then quite likely I am not the only one with this problem. I will go through your detailed list of suggestions a bit later. Thanks a lot again for your help! Best wishes, Torsten I am not sure whether the port below is an Aquamacs. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2012-11/msg00472.html It is Emacs 24.2.90. One major version up and also a pre-test. You can read the reaction of people in that thread. That version has a fairly recent version of all org files. Notably an old org-compat that is /very close/ to new org-compat. If the new port works, then you really don't have to bother but just carry on with your work and bother less about Org. -- -- Dr Torsten Anders Course Leader, Music Technology University of Bedfordshire Park Square, Room A315 http://www.torsten-anders.de

Re: [O] Opendocument export causes error
I will go through your detailed list of suggestions a bit later. Thanks a lot again for your help! I hope you do revert with your observations on broken setup. In my experience, most users don't :-). There is some confusion around the area of macros and autoloads. Something is amiss. Only non-programmers seem to run in to this and it has been very difficult to understand what is happening on their setup, without their co-operation. Here is another suggestion. A bit easy one though. This will be archived and will serve as a written hint to debug macro/autoload issues. When the err happens, 1. Load Emacs like this. Adjust the `-L's. Note also the -Q. emacs --debug-init -L ~/src/org-mode/lisp -L ~/src/org-mode/contrib/lisp -Q 2. M-x load-library RET org-odt RET 3. M-x ielm RET Here is a sample session both for org-odt and org-e-odt. Sample illustrates the sequence of events that led org-compat.el to be loaded. The sequence below is courtesy this suggestion/thread: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2012-11/msg00227.html So the load chain is: org-compat = org = org-exp = org-lparse = org-odt , | *** Welcome to IELM *** Type (describe-mode) for help. | ELISP (symbol-file 'org-compat 'require) | /home/kjambunathan/src/org-mode/lisp/org.elc | ELISP (symbol-file 'org 'require) | /home/kjambunathan/src/org-mode/lisp/org-exp.elc | ELISP (symbol-file 'org-exp 'require) | /home/kjambunathan/src/org-mode/lisp/org-lparse.elc | ELISP (symbol-file 'org-lparse 'require) | /home/kjambunathan/src/org-mode/lisp/org-odt.elc | ELISP (symbol-file 'org-odt 'require) | nil ` So the load chain is: org-compat = org = org-element = org-export = org-e-odt , | *** Welcome to IELM *** Type (describe-mode) for help. | ELISP (symbol-file 'org-compat 'require) | /home/kjambunathan/src/org-mode/lisp/org.elc | ELISP (symbol-file 'org 'require) | /home/kjambunathan/src/org-mode/lisp/org-element.elc | ELISP (symbol-file 'org-element 'require) | /home/kjambunathan/src/org-mode/contrib/lisp/org-export.el | ELISP (symbol-file 'org-export 'require) | /home/kjambunathan/src/org-mode/contrib/lisp/org-e-odt.elc | ELISP (symbol-file 'org-e-odt 'require) | nil | ELISP (symbol-file 'org-macs 'require) | /home/kjambunathan/src/org-mode/lisp/org.elc ` ps: I hope I am invoking `symbol-file' properly. --

Jambunathan K kjambunathan at gmail.com writes: So org-odt indirectly requires org-compat. Even though it may have no bearing in this case: AFAICS it uses a macro from org-compat directly, so it shouldn't rely on other files to pull in that definition, it should require it directly. In OP's case, the org-compat is provided by older library that comes with Vanilla Emacs. Unless I'm missing something, this is only possible if it gets loaded before the load-path to the new Org is set up. If so, a (require 'org-compat) would not correct the situation, while a (load-library org-compat) would. I would like to see the value of load-history on the OP's box after an emacs -Q -L /path/to/org if possible. Regards, Achim.
