At best, they might be innocuous: your init file might be trying to load things that don't exist any more. At worst, you may be running a mixed installation: you might be loading things from various versions of Org mode that might coexist on your system(s) (depending on how exactly you install Org mode: if you use the version that is bundled with emacs *only* you should not have any problems; but if you install a more recent one from ELPA or from git, you should be careful). If you encounter problems after the initial load, you might have a mixed installation. See https://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#mixed-install for more details on how to check. Mixed installations are an unending source of problems and need to be taken care of. I install new versions of emacs and Org mode fairly frequently (every couple of months) at which point I restart emacs to see whether any such problems crop up. If there are, I fix them right then and there, until I can get a clean restart. If it's not obvious, I take a look through the etc/ORG-NEWS file, which you should have locally, but in a pinch you can look for it online: https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode/src/master/etc/ORG-NEWS In particular, this is the best place for assistance with backward incompatibilities that you mentioned above. Assuming you know which release you came from and which release you are going to, look through the sections describing them and all intermediate releases, to see what backward incompatibilites were introduced and what suggested solutions there are. As a last resort, you can always ask here. In general, I find that fixing these problems asap is better for my sanity. Cleaning up your init file to get rid of the (now) useless loads is also a good idea (even though they are innocuous): init files tend to accumulate junk (mine has been doing that for 30 years), so getting rid of old cruft is, for me, another essential activity to maintain a semblance of sanity. My $0.02, YMMV, etc. -- Nick "There are only two hard problems in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors." -Martin Fowler

Re: Problems while trying to load feature
This is a problem I’ve noticed as well. Now, I am a programmer — my code or it’s descendants is still in the distribution — I do update org mode regularly, and I get messages when I start up Emacs about Org mode files that can’t be loaded. I wouldn’t be surprised if the cause is this renaming. But honestly I stopped having time to hack emacs 30 years ago. Wouldn’t it be desirable if changes that aren’t backward-compatible included some kind of assistance for users?

Re: Problems while trying to load feature
Good morning, Richard and list 1) I updated org from MELPA. Previous versions had same problem. 2) I can't find the files in my entire computer. 3) With emacs -q there are not error messages. I send M-: or write (require 'org) and press C-x C-e in the scratch and I see nothing special, just: org [2 times] elisp--preceding-sexp: End of file during parsing Mark set Best regards, Ypo El 14/03/2021 a las 18:05, Richard Lawrence escribió: Hi Ypo, Ypo writes: Problems while trying to load feature ‘ol-org-w3m’ [etc.] It says "ol-..." because I tried to solve it after reading the mail list.

Problems while trying to load feature
Hi This is my first message to this list. I am an orgmode dependant user, but not an advanced user, nor a programmer. My emacs is quite customized, though. I have been cleaning up my init.el file a little this Sunday, and solving some problems shown in "Messages" buffer after launching emacs. But there is an issue I don't know how to solve. I have search in the list and reddit but I can't solve it. It is this message: Problems while trying to load feature ‘ol-org-bbdb’ Problems while trying to load feature ‘ol-org-bibtex’ Problems while trying to load feature ‘ol-org-docview’ Problems while trying to load feature ‘ol-org-gnus’ Problems while trying to load feature ‘ol-org-info’ Problems while trying to load feature ‘ol-org-irc’ Problems while trying to load feature ‘ol-org-mhe’ Problems while trying to load feature ‘ol-org-rmail’ Problems while trying to load feature ‘ol-org-w3m’ It says "ol-..." because I tried to solve it after reading the mail list. It is said that it happens because in version 27.1 files changed their name from "org-bbdb" to "ol-org-bbdb", but as you can see, the problems keep popping up.
