Hi all,

In addition to being pretty new to org-mode, I'm also an emacs novice. 
I am running ubuntu feisty with emacs 22.1.1 from the feisty backports 
repository.

At some point, I made a mess of things in upgrading org-mode; stupidly 
I sometimes modified the makefile so as to install the local lisp 
files to a local lisp tree ~/emacs/site-lisp (loaded by my .emacs) and 
sometimes so that they ended up in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp. 
My bad.

This just bit me as I installed 5.08 and ended up running 5.07a 
despite that until I worked things out. Bandage applied to foot, all 
seems fine for now.

But, I'd like not to shoot myself again. As yet, I've been modifying 
the makefile on the basis of hope, rather than knowledge.

Could someone with a similar OS/emacs combo please suggest what's the 
right thing to do?

Thanks and best,

Brian vdB
