Re: issue tracker?

[Roland Everaert]

No, I was not aware of it.  Yet, if I understand the objective of the Emacs
ML and Debbugs, it is for, when you have a crash with emacs or, at least,
an error stack trace when evaluating some lisp code. This is different from
the intent here to define how to switch a thread started as a simple
conversation to a tracked conversation, as a bug, feature request or
suggestion, an the other way around.

Sorry if I was not clear about it or if I misunderstand the purpose of
Debbugs and the Emacs ML.

Roland.

Re: emacs + org-mode in virtual machine/docker/...

[Roland Everaert]

Thank you for the suggestions, but my main problem is to define the network
interface correctly, and, probably, the firewall correctly.

With regard to nomachine, it seems more about accessing remote hosts than
the guest OS of a host OS. So it seems more of an overkill to me, anyway,
can still be useful at time.

Re: issue tracker?

[Roland Everaert]

I have to admit that I am kind of a state tracking freak, so, your proposal
is welcomed to keep that tendency at bay.

However, I would add a "category" for bugs/issues and feature requests, in
the subject, else, the bot, the readers and the maintainer will have still
to dig deep into threads to know which one was a feature and which one was
actually a bug report.

There must be also some kind of "protocol" to transition between the
various discussions, like
- from bug to a normal question
- normal question to a feature request

We must avoid that to much bugs ends up as simple discussion, without a
proper sanitation of the thread subject. * I am not sure this is clear even
for me :/*

Re: issue tracker?

[Roland Everaert]

I will surely state the obvious, but the output of this discussion is that
ther4e is a need for everybody, what ever our relationship to org-mode or
emacs, needs a way to filter the various conversation about org-mode on the
various communication channel used by the project.

This mainly imply this ML and if there is a way to pre-format messages we
want to send to the ML it will make filtering easier.

In fact, a good approach would be the same as for todo state.

Example of message states:
[QUESTION] -> [ANSWER]
[BUG] -> ( [CONFIRMED] | [WONTFIX] | [SOLVED] )
[CONFIRMED] -> ( [SOLVED] | [PLANNED] )
[FEATURE] -> ( [WONTDO] | [PLANNED] | [IMPLEMENTED] )
[PLANNED] -> ( [IMPLEMENTED] | [SOLVED] )

Of Course, nothing should prevent moving a message from [BUG] to [QUESTION]
for example.

Hope this will help go on with a solution and an actual implementation, I
suppose mainly documentation on the org website and configuration for all
of us.

Regards,

Roland.

Re: emacs + org-mode in virtual machine/docker/...

I am a user of emacs on virtual machines at work, and the environment works
pretty well. I use virtual box as the provided workstation host windows,
but the virtual machine host a linux os though. The only thing I didn't
manage to do yet, is to allow the windows host to access the guest using
SSH. I have read many articles, but none of them seems to work :(

Any suggestion for the latter topic, (off this list), is welcomed

Re: issue tracker?

[Roland Everaert]

Sourcehut seams interesting. Did you know if importing github/gitlab
projects, with issues and merge requests (opened and closed) is supported
at the moment?

I noticed it is in alpha, so I don't expect to see all the features of any
of those forges yet.

Before I forget, Does magit+forge works well with sourcehut, especially the
latter, as the former shouldn't have any problem?

Roland.

Re: [PATCH] Skip entries with no ID when updating ID locations

[Roland Everaert]

A note related to duplicate IDs, the messages only shows one of the
duplicate, so it is not easy to know which one to change.

This have implication when creating links to headline using their IDs.

And does the current algorithm for finding duplicates check their
reference through the "org db"?

Error running timer ‘org-alert-check’: (args-out-of-range "" 0)

[Roland Everaert]

Hello,

First, best wishes.

Currently emacs is hanging during startup.

In a terminal, running the following command unblock the init phase and
emacs finish loading up properly.

kill -USR2 

In the *Messages* buffer, I see the message shown in the subject line of this
mail. Removing my org-alert configuration avoid emacs from hanging, but
I have this activated since a year or two and it is the first time I
encounter the problem.

Emacs version: GNU Emacs 26.3 (build 1, x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 
3.24.13) of 2019-12-10
Org-Mode version: Org mode version 9.3.1 (9.3.1-elpaplus 
@/home/roland/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20191230/)
Configuration repository: https://github.com/montaropdf/reve-emacs-config

Any Idea wht could lead to that problem or how to go further in my 
investigation?

Have you had a look at org-brain. I don't use is much, but there are

Mu4E is a major mode for managing e-mails using the mu index. it
provides a main view with bookmarks and entries to perform searches and
composing message, among othe thing, but what I find more useful are the
header view, which displays a multi-columns list of e-mails with
associated meta-data and a message view allowing to view the content of
an e-mail. The header view allows for bulk actions while the message
view act, obiously, on the current message and permit replying and
transfering the current e-mail.

Hello Bastien,

Nice to see you are still alive ;)

Sad to read that you plan to stepdown, but, happy to finally have a way
to support your work on a regular basis.

I hope you will continue to be part of this community even as an humble

And I hope, everything will be better for you in the coming years.

I am really grateful to you, Nicolas, Carsten and all the maintainers of
this amazing tool, which, with emacs preserve my sanity in this crazy

Re: [Idea] Org Collections

[Roland Everaert]

I do agree that "aspect" is a very abstract term and all depends on the
scope of this proposal, I suppose.

Reading the proposal again, it seems that my proposal could apply, as
the intent seems to define a per "aspect" configuration. On the other
end as aspects are quite abstract, an aspect can be part of another one
and aspects can have different "implementations" (collections,
documents, headlines and TODOs???, ...).

Re: [Idea] Org Collections

[Roland Everaert]

+1 for this idea.

You speak about one document used by multiple collections, how do you
plan to manage that from a file system point of view?

How will be organized a collection, still from the FS point of view?

As some are delving into the abyss of sementic, I propose aspects
instead of collections or contexts. Ultimately we are trying to manage
various aspects of our life, by splitting those aspects into files or
diretories and what not. So, if it is the intent of your idea, the term
aspect seems more appropriate than collection or context IMHO.

Did you think about the specific UI of aspects management?
Proposal of UI I particularly like:
- Mu4E
- forge/magit

How to keep track of all those aspects?

I will surely have more to say, but, as of know I am at work.

Regards,

Roland.

[Roland Everaert]

I had a quick look at the recoll and I notice that there is a python API
to update/create index.

Maybe something could be developped using the python package recently
released by Karl Voit, to feed a recoll index with org data.

Re: Anyone use 3rd party search tools w/org-mode?

[Roland Everaert]

Hello all,

I am interested in a search/indexing engine targeting the org format,
too.

My interest comes from the fact that I have a growing number of org
files and as org-mode has no file archiving feature, AFAIK, searching
needs more and more time to complete.

Moving files, that are no more necessary, outside of my org-directories,
can be tedious and prone to moving the wrong file to the wrong location.

Hence, an indexer could comes in handy, especially if it is optimised
for the Org format (i.e.: it knows what are categories, tags,
properties, etc in an Org file).


Regards,

Roland.

[O] bug#35419: bug#35419: [Proposal] Buffer Lenses and the Case of Org-Mode (also, Jupyter)

[Roland Everaert]

For what I understand of eev (which I discover following this thread),
the idea is to create "notebooks" (à la Jupyter) of commands that can be 
executed in
any orders the user want. So, lenses could be useful to apply the
correct mode the block of code at point.

[O] Regresssion in org-capture?

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

Since a few weeks, the following template didn't work anymore.

(setq org-capture-templates
  `(("b" "Add url to bookmarks DB" entry (file+headline 
"~/org/private/bookmarks.org" "URLs")
"** %i\n" :immediate-finish t))
  )

Anytime I execute it I got this error:

org-capture: Capture template ‘b’: Template is not a valid Org entry or tree

Org-mode and Emacs version

Org mode version 9.2.3 (9.2.3-elpa @ /home/roland/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20190402/)
GNU Emacs 26.1 (build 1, x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.22.30) of 
2018-06-26


Minimal configuration I have used to reproduce the problem:

(require 'package)
(setq package-enable-at-startup nil)
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "http://orgmode.org/elpa/;) t)

(package-initialize);; Initialize & Install Package

; Bootstrap `use-package'
(unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)
  (package-refresh-contents)
  (package-install 'use-package))

(use-package org
   :ensure org-plus-contrib
   :pin org
   :mode (("\\.org$" . org-mode)
  ("\\.org_archive$" . org-mode))
   :bind (("C-c l" . org-store-link)
  ("C-c b" . org-iswitchb)
  ("C-c c" . org-capture))
  )

(setq org-capture-templates
  `(("b" "Add url to bookmarks DB" entry (file+headline 
"~/org/private/bookmarks.org" "URLs")
"** %i\n" :immediate-finish t))
  )

Does anything has changed in the syntax of org-capture-templates?

Re: [O] URL storage and search - Bookmark+ vs Org Mode

[O] URL storage and search - Bookmark+ vs Org Mode

[Roland Everaert]

Hello,

I am still debating with myself which one is the most appropriate to store and
search for URLs.

The bookmark(+) feature is interesting because it provides a dedicate
interface for bookmarking any kind of resources including URLs, but I
find the interface to search for bookmarks and to jump between different
bookmark file strange if not inefficient.

On the other hand, Org-mode don't provide any dedicated interface
for storing and searching URLs, but switching from Org Mode file to the
next one and searching for data is much more intuitive.

Hence, what is the experience of the community with both tools and how
you store your internet bookmarks, both to store a particular article or the
home page of a website?


Thanks for your time,

Roland Everaert.

Hi,

I use the following configuration:

 parenthèses, accolades et brackets ;;
(setq skeleton-pair t)
(global-set-key "[" 'skeleton-pair-insert-maybe)
(global-set-key "{" 'skeleton-pair-insert-maybe)
(global-set-key "(" 'skeleton-pair-insert-maybe)

This will only close the defined characters.


Hope this will help.

[O] Clocktable - Grouping time per property instead of headline

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

I have a clock table that displays the accumulated time for each entry for
the previous week with a step of a day.

I would like to have modify it so that the accumulated time is grouped
based  the value of a property instead of the headline.

If the property is not present, the clock table should show the data as
usual, thou.

How can I achieve that?

Regards,

Roland.

Re: [O] clocktable - Wrong type argument: plistp - after upgrade

[Roland Everaert]

After some search, I have found this option causing the error. It is
:fileskip0. If I remove it from the #+BEGIN line, the clocktable is
computed and displayed.

[O] clocktable - Wrong type argument: plistp - after upgrade

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

After an upgrade of both cygwin and org-mode, I am not able to refresh my
clock table.

Here is the clocktable declaration:

#+COLUMNS: %60ITEM %7imputation %TODO %3PRIORITY %TAGS#
+BEGIN: clocktable :block thisweek-1 :maxlevel 5 :scope
agenda-with-archives :properties ("imputation") :inherit-props t :step day
:fileskip0 :link t


The full error message:

org-prepare-dblock: Wrong type argument: plistp, (:name "clocktable" :block
thisweek-1 :maxlevel 5 :scope agenda-with-archives :properties
("imputation") ...)


Version of emacs and org-mode:

Org mode version 9.1.13 (9.1.13-elpa @
/cygdrive/c/Users/re/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20180716/)
GNU Emacs 26.1 (build 1, x86_64-unknown-cygwin) of 2018-05-28

Does the syntax changed in clocktable?

[O] Creating mu4e-like screens for org-mode

Hi,

I would like to create a set of screens for dealing with org-mode like mu

So I am searching good resources, like guidelines, that explain how to

I could look directly into the code of those projects or the agenda view,
but I would prefer something more structured than trial-and-error.

[O] Question about org-id-update-id-locations

[Roland Everaert]

Hello,

I am currently writing a function to remove duplicated Ids reported
by org-id-update-id-locations, but as of now I am using the output in
*Messages*, which is far from ideal.

Is there another way to get that list?

Would it be possible to have all occurrences of each IDs instead of just
one?

Does the function take into consideration references to IDs?

[O] Multi-layer ergonomic keyboard and org-mode

Hi,

I am considering buying this quite expensive ergonomic keyboard.

This organization depends on your workflow, but their is surely some
standard key arrangement to improve our typing with our favorite editor an

Re: [O] Ruby or Python or Something

I guess it depends if you need to access external resources or not (DB,

As a dev/sysadmin, I tend to use whatever language suites my needs when
writing documents or adding data to some TODO item with emacs and org-mode.

[O] Agenda View - Table report - Granularity of time computed

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

I have noticed that the computation of time in the agenda report (key 'R')
is based on the granularity of the functions to increment or decrements
time in a clock entry inside a logbook.

I know that this granularity can be changed and that I could set it to 1,
but why the time computation in the agenda report is influenced by that
granularity?

[O] clock-table property column empty

Hi,

In a clocktable I have a column that must show the content of a property I
fill in each of my tasks. Since version 9.0.6, at least, this column is
empty.

Any idea where this comes from?

Emacs and Org-mode versions:
GNU Emacs 25.2.1 (x86_64-unknown-cygwin) of 2017-04-21
Org mode version 9.0.7 (9.0.7-elpaplus @

Thanks for your help,

Roland.

[O] org babel table header sent to awk code block

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

I am trying to filter a table using the following awk code block.
#+BEGIN_SRC awk :stdin list-example :var fstcol=1 :var seccol=3 :results
output org
  BEGIN {
  print "|Host|Result"
  print "|-"
  }
  $seccol ~ /[0-9]{1,3}(\.[0-9]\{1,3\}){3}/
  {
  print "|"$fstcol"|"$seccol
  }
#+END_SRC

The input table:

#+NAME: list-example
| A  |B |C |
|+--+--|
| blabla |  12.147.5.74 | 10.23.31.189 |
| test   |  147.12.5.74 |  |
| hello  | 79.147.64.74 | 10.23.31.189 |


And the result is:


#+RESULTS:
#+BEGIN_SRC org
| Host   |   Result |
|+--|
| A  |C |
| blabla | 10.23.31.189 |
| test   |  |
| hello  | 10.23.31.189 |
#+END_SRC


Why the column names of the table are sent to awk?

I have tried to set :colnames and :hlines, but that doesn't change the
behavior.

[O] Tables not converted to markdown format with markdown exporter

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

Since a few weeks we use mattermost at work and I had recently to post a
table to a team channel. I have created my table with org-mode, but when I
export it to markdown format, the table is converted to html instead of
markdown.

Is there any reason to that, except the simple fact that table conversion
is not implemented yet?

As the markdown format is quite similar to the org-mode format regarding
tables, I don't really see where could lie the difficulty.

Example:
- org format

| column 1  | column 2   | column 3|
|---++-|
| some text | some more text | event more text |
| blah  | 45 | fgf |

- markdown format
| column 1  | column 2   | column 3|
|---||-|
| some text | some more text | event more text |
| blah  | 45 | fgf |


This is obviously a very simple example, but usually, with mattermost, one
doesn't post very complex messages.

Regards.

[O] Modifying keys in the export dispatch menu

[O] org-use-sub-superscripts not used in HTML export

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

During HTML export, whatever is the value of org-use-sub-superscripts, the
undescore in the middle of a word is alway interpreted as subscript.

Example:

_F_irst _L_evel

In this case, if org-use-sub-superscripts has the value {} or nil, I would
expect to see the first letter of both words to be underlined.  However,
the rest of each word is displayed as a subscript and the leading _
character is displayed.

Is this variable for latex only?

[O] Unable to run ditaa on cygwin emacs

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

I use Cygwin emacs with Windows UI. I have just installed java 8 (but java
6 is still present for some legacy application) and updated my
.bash_profile with the following:

export JAVA_HOME=/cygdrive/c/tools/java8
export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin

Org is configured to run ditaa code blocks, but when I evaluate a code
block, I see the following in the *Message* buffer

executing Ditaa code block (TEST)...
java -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -jar

I am using Org 9.0.4 downloaded today.

The ditaa.jar file has been unblocked in the properties of the file in the

Any idea why I get that error message?

[O] Bug: Emacs hangs with badly defined multi characters key hierarchy in org-capture-templates [9.0 (9.0-dist @ /cygdrive/c/Users/re/.emacs.d/site-lisp/org-9.0/lisp/)]

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

When using multicharacters keys, if a key definition entry is missing,
emacs hangs and must be killed.

Example of an offending org-capture-templates definition:

(setq org-capture-templates
  '(("t" "Todo" entry (file+headline "~/somefile.org" "Tâches")
 "* TODO %?\n  %i\n"  :clock-in t :clock-resume t)
("l" "Mail" entry (file+datetree "~/somefile.org" "Divers")
 "* EMAIL %?\n  %i\n" :clock-in t :clock-resume t)
("fm" "some Menu - level 2")
("fmm" "template defintion - level 3 " entry (file+olp "~/somefile.org"
"Level 1" "level 2")
 "* MEETING %?\n  %i\n" :clock-in t :clock-resume t)
("fmt" "another template definition - level 3" entry (file+olp "~/
somefile.org" "Level 1" "level 2")
 "*** TODO %?\n  %i\n" :clock-in t :clock-resume t)))

The definition of the "f" key is missing.

In such case, org-mode should display a message and, do nothing or ignore
the offending tree.

[O] org-capture-templates with multi charachter keys

[Roland Everaert]

Hello,

Is there somewhere in the org documentation or on the internet a complete
example of using multi-character keys in org-capture.

This excerpt from the documentation is not clear to me :/

"The keys that will select the template, as a string, characters only, for
example "a" for a template to be selected with a single key, or "bt" for
selection with two keys. When using several keys, keys using the same
prefix key must be sequential in the list and preceded by a 2-element entry
explaining the prefix key, for example

   ("b" "Templates for marking stuff to buy")

"

Moreover, can a prefix be composed of multiple characters or only one?

Thanks for your help.

Re: [O] Using code block function as formula in tables

[Roland Everaert]

It works. But I had to set some headers  in the code block itself as
following:

 :exports results :results value

I suppose, I can specify them directly in the org-sbe call, like with
inline calls or call through #+CALL?

This feature really needs to be documented and extensively.


Thanks,

[O] Using code block function as formula in tables

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

Is it possible to call a code block from a table field as it is a formula?

I have tried the following syntax from a field in a table, but none of them
is interpreted as expected:

- #+CALL: function(parameters)
- call_function(parameters)

The goal is to use the result of the call in other formulas of the table.

[O] Unable to access the org-mode ELPA repo

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

I am using emacs on a Windows 7 machine at work. I have decided, today, to
switch to ELPA to install org-mode (or any other package), but I am totally
unable to configure emacs properly to reach the repositories.

I have the following errors when emacs starts or when I ask emacs to
refresh the ELPA packages list:

"You can run the command ‘package-list-packages’ with M-x pa-l- RET

Below is the configuration at the beginning of my .emacs init file:

(require 'package)

As you  can see in the error messages, the problem appears even with the
gnu archive. I suspect a proxy settings issue, but I don't know how to
diagnose the problem and find the solution.

Any help appreciated,

[O] clocktable - summing time on a property instead of headline

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

I am treating multiple tasks that can belong to the same project or
different project, but as I have an (almost) infinite number of projects
and I am working on many projects throughout the day, I prefer to define a
property that will contain the project code instead of a tree for each
project.

Thus, is it possible to configure a clock table to display time spend on a
property instead of a headline.


Thanks,


Roland.

[O] Using org-mode as a personal help desk tool

[Roland Everaert]

Hi,

I am working as a sysadmin, In the organization, we use 2 tools to keep
track of requests sent by the customers/users. As you can expect, those
tools are not meant to be used to track all the gritty details of a
sysadmin's job.

So I am turning to org-mode (that I used for years) and its community to
find a way to organize my job and being able to track what I have done and
store the hundreds of lines of output from a command-line.

I was wondering if it was possible to create directories and files with
org-capture, based on data given interactively by the user.

My intention would be to work this way:

1. Create a directory for a request or a group of tasks or a project, in
short, an aspect of my job.
2. Create a file that will contain the information related to the request
in addition to a journal allowing me to keep track of what I have done and
store all the data that are useful to me.
3. Store anything that is related to that request or aspect of my job into
the related directory.
4. Being able to search for a particular aspect or getting a list of them
and access it.
5. When the job is done for an aspect, archive the directory.

So far, I was using the configuration of norang, but I don't thing it is
really adapted to my work-flow anymore.

I know that org-mode is capable of a lot of things, but I was wondering if
this is not a little bit to broad for org-mode to be an efficient tool. I
was even thinking that all of this should be done through a server, with
emacs being the interface to communicate with it.

I would like to ear from others, how they are dealing with a similar job
than mine using org-mode.

Hope everything is clear, and don't hesitate to ask for clarification.


Regards.

Re: [O] Problem with org-mode after upgradiing to org 8

[Roland Everaert]

org-mode will makes me crazy. After a deep review (well rewrite my entire
configuration based on norang's one) org-mode is working again, but its the
version bundled with emacs that seems to be loaded and not the one I
downloaded from the git repository.


My emacs configuration is structured like so:

~/.emacs.d/init.el
~/.emacs.d/site-lisp/ -- contains alot of lisp codes including the
directory of org.


At the top of the init.el file I put the following:

(let ((default-directory ~/.emacs.d/site-lisp/))
  (normal-top-level-add-to-load-path '(.))
  (normal-top-level-add-subdirs-to-load-path))


I, later, load a file containing all my org-mode configuration. That file
is located in ~/.emacs.d/site-lisp/. I load that file in this way:

(load-library my-org-mode-config)

 At the top of that configuration file is written:

(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name
~/.emacs.d/site-lisp/org-mode/lisp))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name
~/.emacs.d/site-lisp/org-mode/contrib/lisp))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '(\\.\\(org\\|org_archive\\)$ . org-mode))

(require 'org)


So I don't understand why M-x org-version gives me:

Org-mode version 7.9.3f (release_7.9.3f-17-g7524ef @
/usr/share/emacs/24.3/lisp/org/)


Any help welcomed,


Roland.

  Which lines from the my ~/.emacs.d/init.el, would you like to see?

 How are you telling Emacs where Orgmode lives? My suggestion would be
 the following:

 Create a minimal .emacs file with just the following (change path to
 wherever your orgmode git repo is):

 (add-to-list 'load-path ~/path/to/org.git/lisp/)

 From a command line, run:

 $ emacs -Q

 Then from Emacs, run:

 M-x load-file [press enter] /path/to/minimal-config/from/above [press
 enter]

 Then run:

 M-x org-version

 You should get something like this:

 Org-mode version 8.2.6 (release_8.2.6-950-ge599e8 @
 /home/jwhendy/.elisp/org.git/lisp/)

 If you don't get any errors, close emacs, copy some lines from your
 real config into that minimal config, and repeat the process (emacs
 -Q - M-x load-file...) until you get the error again. Then you'll
 know what's causing it. Doing it this way helps know that you've at
 least got the right Org-mode loaded (not the one built in to your
 Emacs), and from there we can track the issue.

 Once that's all set, getting exporters going is a pretty simple
 matter. I have this in my .emacs:

 (require 'ox-latex)
 (require 'ox-html)
 (require 'ox-beamer)
 (require 'ox-md)
 (require 'ox-odt)
 (require 'ox-taskjuggler)

 (add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
  '(beamer
\\documentclass\[presentation\]\{beamer\}
(\\section\{%s\} . \\section*\{%s\})
(\\subsection\{%s\} . \\subsection*\{%s\})
(\\subsubsection\{%s\} . \\subsubsection*\{%s\})))

 That handles it all for me.

 Also, please keep cc'ing the Org list. They know much more than I do,
 and as you provide more information can probably help you better than
 I can as well.


 Good luck!
 John


 
 
  Roland.

 How are you telling Emacs where Orgmode lives? My suggestion would be
 the following:

 Create a minimal .emacs file with just the following (change path to
 wherever your orgmode git repo is):

 (add-to-list 'load-path ~/path/to/org.git/lisp/)

 From a command line, run:

 $ emacs -Q

 Then from Emacs, run:

 M-x load-file [press enter] /path/to/minimal-config/from/above [press
 enter]

 Then run:

 M-x org-version

 You should get something like this:

 Org-mode version 8.2.6 (release_8.2.6-950-ge599e8 @
 /home/jwhendy/.elisp/org.git/lisp/)

 If you don't get any errors, close emacs, copy some lines from your
 real config into that minimal config, and repeat the process (emacs
 -Q - M-x load-file...) until you get the error again. Then you'll
 know what's causing it. Doing it this way helps know that you've at
 least got the right Org-mode loaded (not the one built in to your
 Emacs), and from there we can track the issue.

 Once that's all set, getting exporters going is a pretty simple
 matter. I have this in my .emacs:

 (require 'ox-latex)
 (require 'ox-html)
 (require 'ox-beamer)
 (require 'ox-md)
 (require 'ox-odt)
 (require 'ox-taskjuggler)

 (add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
  '(beamer
\\documentclass\[presentation\]\{beamer\}
(\\section\{%s\} . \\section*\{%s\})
(\\subsection\{%s\} . \\subsection*\{%s\})
(\\subsubsection\{%s\} . \\subsubsection*\{%s\})))

 That handles it all for me.

 Also, please keep cc'ing the Org list. They know much more than I do,
 and as you provide more information can probably help you better than
 I can as well.


 Good luck!

  Can you elaborate on your exact procedure for upgrading as well as
 posting
  relevant lines from .emacs?

   How can I switch to a stable branch instead of the last beta, to check

   Thanks for your help.
