Nope, pretty sure I got it all out of there, and I'm still getting the
same error, and =with-output-to-temp-buffer= is definitely still a
c-source code function.
I re-installed emacs from the Ubuntu repositories for good measure, to
no avail. If I run emacs -Q so that the org code base that's loaded is
the default, the error disappears. Adding git org to the load path,
reloading org and trying again is enough to make the error return.
Running emacs -Q from the command line produces:
Warning: Lisp directory `/usr/local/share/emacs/23.2/site-lisp' does not exist.
Warning: Lisp directory `/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp' does not exist.
Which I've never seen before, and which seems like a warning sign. I'm
quite prepared to believe that I've somehow got tangled codebases, but I
really don't know where to look next…
Thanks,
Eric
