There are also some other alternatives on the emacs-devel list from when I asked as a general question regarding package.el and dependencies. Should be noted that this issue is primarily caused because, fro the package.el perspective, org-plus-contrib is different to the org package. Other ELPA/M

This is indeed useful, thanks. I think this may be best done by some startup code, which when installing org-plus-contrib with require-package, deletes any existing org package, and makes this dummy org package. Would it be useful if such code appeared within the org-plus-contrib package itself,

Aloha Simon, Spacemacs has this problem, too. The solution there is to byte-recompile org-plus-contrib after an update. hth, Tom Simon Guest writes: > Hi Nicolas, > > My problem with org-plus-contrib exhibited itself when using a .emacs.d > based on Steve Purcell's, https://github.com/purcell/

While there are some minor issues with org-plus-contrib, I find them to be minor and mostly due to limitations in package.el (for example, dependency on org results in both org-plus-contrib and org packages being installed). In fact, I find org-plus-contrib easier to manage than just the straight

Well, almost as soon as I started on that, I see some issues around mixing old/new org-mode functionality, so this seems like a not-so-good idea after all. In particular, ox-taskjuggler is using the very new org-duration library. I'll think of another approach, not using MELPA. At least until th
