[BUG] org-export-normalize-links: Invalid function: org-if-unprotected-at

[BUG] org-export-normalize-links: Invalid function: org-if-unprotected-at

[Eric Schulte]

Hi,

When publishing large html projects I sometimes run into the following
error.

: org-export-normalize-links: Invalid function: org-if-unprotected-at

This happens unpredictably, and I find that it can normally be fixed by
some combination of...
- updating Org-mode with git pull
- running make clean && make in my Org-mode directory
- restarting Emacs

My questions are
- has anyone else seen this?
- does anyone have advice for forensic analysis I should perform next
  time this happens?

Thanks -- Eric

Hi Eric,

I think this can happen when using a uncompiled version of org-exp.el  
that is
getting a compiled version of org.el via (require 'org).

Adding

    (require 'org-macs)

to org-exp.el (I just did that) should hopefully get rid of this issue.

Hi Carsten,

I just grabbed the latest version of Org-mode, ran

  $ make clean && make

restarted Emacs, and tried again and ran into the same issue.

  org-export-normalize-links: Invalid function: org-if-unprotected-at

I then ran

  $ make clean

restarted Emacs, and tried again, and the publish worked without a
problem.  It seems to be a problem related to compiled version of either
org-exp.el or org-macs.el, but I have no idea which.  For now I'm
content running uncompiled.  Please let me know if there is some way for
me to investigate or provide more useful debugging info.

Thanks -- Eric

Hi Eric,

I have no idea how this can happen.  If you have any new information,  
let me know.

As anyone else seen the problem Eric describes?
