It does happen anyway. I had that in to get around this issue a while ago
(long story, but it is why we still run 8.2.10), and I still get the issue
without it.

I think I have figured it out. The order the packages are installed is
important. The code below illustrates the issue for me. If I install
org-plus-contrib first, the issue goes away. Note the first thing the pydoc
package does is:

(require 'org), which I guess interferes with subsequent building of org.
(I am using GNU Emacs 25.1.50.1).

Also, you need to have (R . t) in there. that specifically triggers the
error.


(setq user-emacs-directory "./sandbox/")

(require 'package)

(setq package-archives
      '(("org" . "http://orgmode.org/elpa/")
("gnu" . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/")
("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/")))

(package-initialize)
(package-refresh-contents)


(package-install 'pydoc)
(package-install 'org-plus-contrib)


(org-babel-do-load-languages
 'org-babel-load-languages
 '((emacs-lisp . t)
   (R . t)
   ))


(message "done")
