dired-do-copy

[Andreas Roehler]

Trying `dired-do-copy' I get the following message:

"Symbol's value as variable is void: dired-recursive-copies"

However: this doesn't happen with emacs -q.

Any idea?

The evaluated form is

(defun dired-do-copy (&optional arg)
  "Copy all marked (or next ARG) files, or copy the current file.
..."
  (interactive "P")
  (let ((dired-recursive-copies dired-recursive-copies))
    (dired-do-create-files 'copy (function dired-copy-file)
                           "Copy"
                           arg dired-keep-marker-copy
                           nil dired-copy-how-to-fn))) 

Thanks

It's obviously some setting in a site-specific file ... The  
*Messages* buffer should name the files loaded at start-up in which  
the setting could be found.

Did you make GNU Emacs 22.0.50 with 'make bootstrap?'

Usually I run the CVS Emacs without any installation
straight from the source with

~/emacs/src/emacs -q --debug-init  --load ~/.gnu-emacs-cvs-custom
--load ~/.gnu-emacs-all-cvs &

i.e. specifying my own init scripts.

As it works with `~/emacs/src/emacs -q', can't imagine
that a not done `make bootstrap' might be the cause.
Should I be erroneous here, please send some more detailed
reasons.

As far as it concerns `dired' I have in 

~/.gnu-emacs-all-cvs

(dired "/home/speck/progarbeit/emacs")
(define-key dired-mode-map "\C-cc" 
'dired-mark-files-containing-regexp)

and in 

~/.gnu-emacs-cvs-custom

 '(dired-listing-switches "-lart")

Thanks

Found:

Error was caused by a `dired.el' loaded from
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/elisp.tar.gz


Evaluation of this file stops at point

(defalias 'dired-get-subdir-min 'cdr)
