The problem is now fixed for me. I uninstalled the package, restarted emacs
with -Q, initialized package and reinstalled from there. I had to remove
the occurrences of function-put again though.

Without -Q, it seems that there was a compilation error in org-attach.el at
line 42 (require 'org-id), related to an undefined function
"org-link-set-parameter".

When I try to evaluate org-loaddefs manually, I get an error "Symbol's
function definition is void: function-put".

Apparently, based on this thread [1], it can happen if I installed org
using a more recent version of emacs than the one I am using currently. It
was certainly the case until this morning, but I installed the update from
this computer, and after the problem appeared, I uninstalled and
reinstalled org, again from this computer.

Replacing occurrences of function-put with put got rid of the first warning
(the warning message could have been more helpful), but not of the second
one.

org-element-update-syntax is defined in org-element.el, so I guess it is
another compilation problem. How can I make sure that the package is
compiled for my version of emacs?

[O] Cannot load org after updating to 9.0

[Thibaut Verron]

Hello,

I updated my emacs packages this morning, including org 9.0, from GNU elpa.
Apparently (based on other folders in my elpa installation folder), my last
previous update was on april 11, 2016, so the problem may not come from the
very latest version. Nonetheless, I didn't find any other mention of it
online.

So, how does the problem appear? When I start emacs, I get the following
"warnings":

> WARNING: No org-loaddefs.el file could be found from where org.el is
loaded.
> You need to run "make" or "make autoloads" from Org lisp directory
> Warning (initialization): An error occurred while loading
`(...)/.emacs.d/init.el':

> Symbol's function definition is void: org-element-update-syntax

For the first warning, I tried looking in the ~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20161102
folder (which is where the loaded org.el file is), and it does contain
org-loaddefs.el. There is no makefile, but I guess that it is normal for an
installation using elpa.

The second warning is an error and blocks further evaluation of my init
file. For some reason though, --debug-init doesn't give any stacktrace.

I'm using emacs 24.3.1 on linux (ubuntu 14.04).

What should I do?

Thanks,
