I just updated=20 my org mode for the first time, using a snapshot, and I had
an issue = with=20 org-install.  Although I think it's resolved I'm documenting
it = here in=20 case ....

a) I've done something incorrect which needs pointing = out to=20 me
b) it helps others with the same problem
c) it is useful for=20 documentation etc


Here's what I did:

I read this = thread=20 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/32427/ to find out how to get a=20 snapshot
(I had previously downloaded what I thought was = the=20 latest version from http://orgmode.org/org-latest.zip but it's out of date at the = moment)
I=20 downloaded the tar.gz from http://repo.or.cz/w/org-mode.git/snapshot and unpacked it
I renamed my = org-mode=20 directory to org-mode-backup and copied the downloaded org-mode = directory into=20 its place
I started emacs and saw an error message about org-install = (I'm not=20 relaying the message here since I think it's resolved now)
I opened = an org=20 file and saw that at least some of my customisations were not active = (faces),=20 then I closed emacs
I looked in the org-mode directory for = org-install.el and=20 saw that it was missing
I searched the email list archives and read = this=20 thread http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/11416
I copied over the org-install.el file = from my=20 org-mode-backup directory into the new org-mode directory and restarted=20 emacs
Result: org mode updated, no errors

Hope this=20 helps!
