Remove all *.elc files in lisp/org/, and then rebuild Emacs.

Re: Emacs@HEAD 30.1 Org breakage makes Emacs Unusable

[T.V Raman]

Thanks for the prompt response, that fixed it.

Request: The error message that that error displayed was unhelpful and
misleading and talked about irrelevancies (from a stock emacs
perspective) of things like straight.el and other package managers,
use-package and I dont remember what else; I saved it, and attaching
below:

Warning (emacs): Org version mismatch.  Org loading aborted.
This warning usually appears when a built-in Org version is loaded
prior to the more recent Org version.

Version mismatch is commonly encountered in the following situations:

1. Emacs is loaded using literate Org config and more recent Org
   version is loaded inside the file loaded by ‘org-babel-load-file’.
   ‘org-babel-load-file’ triggers the built-in Org version clashing
   the newer Org version attempt to be loaded later.

   It is recommended to move the Org loading code before the
   ‘org-babel-load-file’ call.

2. New Org version is loaded manually by setting ‘load-path’, but some
   other package depending on Org is loaded before the ‘load-path’ is
   configured.
   This "other package" is triggering built-in Org version, again
   causing the version mismatch.

   It is recommended to set ‘load-path’ as early in the config as
   possible.

3. New Org version is loaded using straight.el package manager and
   other package depending on Org is loaded before straight triggers
   loading of the newer Org version.

   It is recommended to put

    (straight-use-package 'org)

   early in the config.  Ideally, right after the straight.el
   bootstrap.  Moving ‘use-package’ :straight declaration may not be
   sufficient if the corresponding ‘use-package’ statement is
   deferring the loading.

This isn't supposed to happen on the master branch: Ihor installed
there changes which should prevent this from happening.  I don't know
why this happened to you (you didn't tell how you caused the error);
perhaps the Org folks would want to investigate.

Re: Emacs@HEAD 30.1 Org breakage makes Emacs Unusable

[T.V Raman]

1. this indeed happened on the master branch.
   2. I built, and started the resulting build, and after a few mins of
      working, something tried to load org and I got stuck in the error
      loop.

      1+ to protecting Master branch from this -- it was beyond my
      abilities to figure out the fix -- will remember in the future to
      clean up org's elc files, but as I pointed out, the message
      displayed would never have led you to discover the fix.
