The one and only "must do" that I've found is to go to /usr/share/emacs/29.1/lisp (substitute new version for 29.1) and 'sudo rm -Rf org'. This is because I get the latest org from the package manager and having a mixed installation is a problem. So this is not required if you just want to use the org version as delivered with the new emacs version. Generally if you keep your elisp packages up to date you shouldn't have a problem. Even then, elisp is backward compatible. I'm sure there are edge cases and exceptions but I've never had to do much of anything when upgrading emacs, which in any case for me is not frequent as I don't stay bleeding edge. -- Bob Newell Honolulu, Hawai`i - Via GNU/Linux/Emacs/Gnus/BBDB
