What about when you try exactly per: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31855904/emacs-sees-the-directory-with-the-new-org-mode-version-but-loads-the-old-versio?answertab=active#tab-top does the “confirm success” step work?

Tried that, but then when I launch regular Emacs with my init file, I still get this error: https://gist.github.com/512c4934d5351a47b2a1 Any other ideas?

You don’t WANT org loaded when you build it again inside the package manager.

Here's what I did: $ open -a /Applications/Emacs.app --args --no-init C-u M-x org-reload package-list-packages select and delete org-plus-contrib package-install org-plus-contrib But then when I quit and launch Emacs without the --no-init argument, I still get: Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable org-planning-line-re) org-element--current-element(168330 element planning nil) ...which I think means org-plus-contrib was not successfully upgraded.

It just shows that message indefinitely... When I try eval-ing package.el first, I get package-desc-reqs accessing a non-package-desc and I can't install org-plus-contrib. Any suggestions?
