With some effort I got it working now with orgmode from git; - okay, it's not bad. Having said that I find it's too much work to do. In my opinion a `git pull` to obtain the current orgmode version and adding the directory to the load path is far less time consuming. So most probably I will refrain from using el-get. henry -- http://literaturlatenight.de
