If I do: info ~/.emacs.d/src/org-mode/doc/org I get the correct git version of the info file. So what am I doing wrong? Ian, I started having issues with this last week. Re-reading this thread gave me hints at a solution. I don't know what happened on my end, but try the following steps, which worked for me: 1) Navigate to your org source directory (git repo, perhaps) 2) Type =make info= 3) Make sure the org/doc directory is in Info-directory-list (looks like it is for you) Kill any Info buffers and restart Info. The manual should be the correct one now. If that doesn't fix it, try also typing =make install-info=, which updates the site-wide documentation. Let me know if this solves the problem for you, and if you had to type =make install-info=.

I have vague recollections of struggling with Info customization many years ago. I finally worked around the problem by explicitly setting my INFOPATH env variable appropriately in my .profile, so that when emacs starts up, it knows where to look. Of course, making sure that some shell init file gets executed at login time in a modern desktop environment (I use the Gnome desktop on Linux) is a battle as well, but at least that only has to be figured out once: I set it up back in Ubuntu Dapper days and I have not touched it since then. If it ever breaks, I will be tempted to chuck the whole thing out the window... Nick ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
