storing link doesn't work from gnus

storing link doesn't work from gnus

[Alberto Berti]

Hi all, 

i'm using "emacs-snapshot" debian emacs 22 package and i'm having
troubles trying to use function "org-store-link" on a gnus message. I
tested it both on a nntp group and an imap group, the answer is always
the same:
"org-store-link: Invalid function:gnus-summary-article-header"

I'not (yet?) an emacs expert but trying to find out where the problem can
be i have loaded the package with the sources (emacs-snapshot-el) and
i've found that it's there, defined as:

(defmacro gnus-summary-article-header (&optional number)
  "Return the header of article NUMBER."
  `(gnus-data-header (gnus-data-find
                      ,(or number '(gnus-summary-article-number)))))


I don't know which version of org-mode is packaged with emacs-snapshot
but the package has the date 20061009 and gnus states to be v 5.11

any hint?

bye

alberto

Could you please post both the version of Emacs (C-h v emacs-version <RET>) 
and Org-mode (C-h v org-version <RET>) ?

Giovanni

P.S.
I hope to answer within the thread :-/

Hi, All, hi, Alberto, 

(sorry for messing up the thread :-(

I suspect that you may have an older version of Org-mode,
[unfortunately I haven't my GNU/Linux Debian box in hand]

could you please post

a) the version information of Emacs (C-h v emacs-version <RET>) 
and
b) Org-mode version (C-h v org-version <RET>) ?

TIA,

Giovanni

This is the second time this bug has been reported.  Even though
I still have no idea how this can happen, I am putting a fix
into the next version.

Hi,

Please, accept i come in your exchange to tell :

I have exactly the same problem. My version of Org-mode was 4.43.
I replaced it by 4.56 and the bug is still present.

I guess my emacs-version or my gnus-version is responsible :

Gnus v5.11
Emacs 22.0.51.1 (Emacs-multi-tty).

Hoping this may help to understand from where can come this bug...

Same problem with emacs-snapshot (Emacs 22.0.91.1)...

For some reasons i have to keep emacs21 on my system too. Maybe this
can disturb...

I have the same problem.

Message of error : 

org-store-link: Invalid function: (macro . #[(&optional number) "ÁÂÂ\b†\a\0ÃDD‡" [number gnus-data-header gnus-data-find (gnus-summary-article-number)] 3 ("/usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/gnus/gnus-sum.elc" . 115006)])

emacs version : 

GNU Emacs 21.4.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of
2006-10-25 on raven, modified by Debian

org-mode version : 4.56 (same error with 4.53 before)

Thanks for your good job. I appreciate this emacs mode very usefull with
my little head.

I hope I can clearly explain my conclusions : 

If I put org.el in my local emacs site, all is fine.
If I compile org.el with my emacs and put org.elc in my emacs site, all
is fine too.

If I do "make install" in folder org-4.56 (normal installation), I have
the bug.

I think it is the script "Makefile" that is wrong ?

I am happy to help you.

Yes, it is.

My two compiled files (by make install and by my emacs) are different.

my emacs  (function emacs-lisp-byte-compile) 
-rw-r--r--  1 momo momo    572679 2006-11-27 12:58 org.elc

make install  or 
in console  : emacs -batch -f batch-byte-compile org.el
-rw-r--r--  1 momo momo    572451 2006-11-27 13:00 org.elc

I have no more knowledge to go further. Sorry to report just these
observations.

Ok. The problem for me were in the path : the files org.el,
org-install.el, org-mouse.el and org-publish were still in the path
for emacs 22.0.51 and not in the new path for emacs 22.0.91.

However emacs 22.0.51 is no more present neither on my system, nor
in the load-path.

I copied the org-*.el in /usr/share/emacs/22.0.91/lisp/texmodes/ and
now 'C-c l' works fine.

Why is /usr/share/emacs/22.0.51/lisp/texmodes/ still present on my
machine ? I don't know. However i removed this version before loading
emacs-snapshot (22.0.91). Curious.

But now all works fine for me.

Thanks.

I've been putting mine into ~/.emacs.d/org, where org is symbolic link to
~/.emacs.d/org-4.54, etc.  It has been working just fine that way, and is easy
to maintain...
