A few problems

A few problems

[Marco Paunescu]

Hello, since I've done recent ubuntu upgrade emacs hasn't been reading
color rules from .Xresources (done xrdb -merge already) and bbdb hasn't
been working any more, thou installed (and reinstalled).

I have versions 21, 22 and 23 installed, and actually only 22 loads
gnus, the others give

run-hooks: Symbol's function definition is void: bbdb-insinuate-gnus

Can we solve these problems?

Thanks for your hints

BBDB works fine for me on Jaunty with the emacs-snapshot package. I've
got this file on my machine:

  /usr/share/emacs-snapshot/site-lisp/bbdb/bbdb-autoloads.elc

which gets loaded by

  /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50bbdb.el

For my emacs23 instance. You should have a bbdb-autoloads.elc for
every emacsen installed. Did you try reinstalling the bbdb package? 

Can you call BBDB after starting up without customizations with
emacs-snapshot -Q? Do your color settings from .Xresources work then?
If not, could you post them here? 

That being said, it can be tough to keep different versions of emacs
running on the same machine. An extension package that you installed
with the package manager might shadow definitions in a newer emacs
version that comes with this package by default. I had problems with
the emacs-goodies package, TRAMP and just yesterday with SLIME which
ships its own version of tree-widget. 

This stuff is easier to handle if you just have one version of emacs
installed, e.g. org-mode comes with emacs23, so you know that you
don't need to install the org-mode ubuntu package, which might or
might not cause problems. Is there a reason you need all of these
emacsen on your machine? I'd recommend that you stay with the newest
version, it's stable enough to use. 

HTH, 

Anselm

A few problems

[Bastien]

Hi Carsten and list,

these issues concern the latest org-mode 4.73 and CVS Emacs.

- In the HTML output, the targetted headlines of the table of contents
  typically look like this : 

  <h2><a name="#sec-3">Title of the targetted section</a></h2>
 
  As a side-effect, the (css) style of such a headline is the same than
  that of a *normal* link, which might be confusing.

  I suggest to use the "id" element instead :
  <h2 id="sec-3">Title of the section</h2>

- The relevant #+ARCHIVE: is not taken into account when archiving headines
  in a narrowed buffer.

- Emacs complains when we C-c C-c on a blank log buffer when clocking out.
  Additionally, an empty log yields an empty line starting with a dash "-",
  which is not quite appropriate.

All the best,

There is another bug regarding narrowing.

When the buffer is narrowed to a heading and then using remember (`C-u
C-c C-c') to store a note to another heading will fail.
