As said above: Emacs cannot find bbdb-autoloads.  The message exactly 
is:

---snip----
An error has occurred while loading `/home/ray/.emacs.elc':
File error: "Cannot open load file", "bbdb-autoloads"
---snap---

yepp ... runs perfectly.  It also runs perfectly if I comment out all 
bbdb calls in my .emacs.

Same here - and that seems to be the problem.  As mentioned in my 
recent posting I purged emacs and bbdb and installed again.  
Therefore I know that bbdb compiles something like bbdb-autoloads - 
well, but I can't find it - neither can emacs :-(

Anybody any hints?
