Build issue with latest git version - org-crypt.el

Build issue with latest git version - org-crypt.el

[Mark Elston]

Not so much a problem as an unexpected issue.

I read Eric's message about updating org-asymptote.el today
and thought I would get the latest to get this fix.  When I
went through the process of building I found it failed at the
org-crypt file since I didn't have epg.el on my system.

I found a copy of this file and thought I would try it and
see if that fixed the problem.  Alas, no.  It is part of a
bigger package - epa.

So I found this and tried to build/install it.  Oops. it
requires gpg to be installed to build it.

Fortunately, this is distributed with pre-compiled binaries
for Windows so installing it and modifying makefiles was
pretty simple to build epa.  I got that installed and
modified the makefile for org-mode so it can be found and
I am back up and running.

I also managed to do the same thing by deleting the org-crypt.el
line from the LISPF entry in the makefile.  Either would work for
me since I don't expect to use org-crypt regularly.  I went
through the above steps because I thought I might actually try
to play around with it for a while and see if it was of any
use to me.

However, for those who won't be using org-crypt as a normal
part of their daily operation it is probably simpler to make
the build/installation of org-crypt optional.  That way the
normal maintenance for those who do "simple" things stays,
uh, simple.

I also think that org-crypt should be optional, or at least put in the
contrib directory.  I didn't realize it was going to cause build issues.

That said, here is a patch for the Makefile so I could build the latest
org-mode:

diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index f1b541b..085951d 100644
--- a/Makefile
+++ b/Makefile

  	  (add-to-list (quote load-path) (expand-file-name \"./lisp/\")))"
 
 # Specify the byte-compiler for compiling org-mode files

epg is not part of older versions of Emacs, look like mark is using  
Emacs 22?
I have changed org-crypt.el so that it will compile without loading epg.
So an error will only happen if anyone actually uses it.

Yeah.  22.3.1.  I tried 23 some time ago and had problems with some
of the packages I used routinely (I forget which ones right now).  So
I gave it up.  It was also a real hassle maintaining two separate
personal 'site-lisp' hierarchies...

Maybe its time to try it again.

Thanks.

I am still getting this problem with the latest git version:

emacs -batch -q -no-site-file -eval "(progn (add-to-list (quote 
load-path) \"~/.emacs-lisp/org\") (add-to-list (quote load-path) 
(expand-file-name \"./lisp/\")))" -f batch-byte-compile lisp/org-crypt.el

In toplevel form:
lisp/org-crypt.el:69:1:Error: Cannot open load file: epg
make: *** [lisp/org-crypt.elc] Error 1

I have both emacs 22 and emacs 23 (the Ubuntu packages installed). I 
removed the easypg package for emacs 22 because it conflicts with the 
built in support for gpg in emacs 23.

I assume my problem is caused by having both emacs 22 and 23 installed.

Thanks. Now compiles without any errors.
