Hi I tried to install org mode by following the instructions and using make, but Im not very familiar
with make and I got an error. Im sending this email to try to get this problem resolved. Here
are the details:
Im using regular emacs so I left the emacs binary as emacs, and my share file is right under usr
(not under local) so my prefix was /usr. My makefile details are shown below:
EMACS= emacs
prefix=/usr ;there is no local file where share is found
lispdir = $(prefix)/share/emacs/site-lisp
infodir = $(prefix)/share/info
Then I entered make in the commandline window and I got alot of messages saying certain fuctions weren't
found and at the end I got an error message:
While compiling toplevel forms in file /home/Krishan/org_mode/lisp/org-protocol.el:
!! File error (("Cannot open load file" "url"))
Done
make: *** [lisp/org-protocol.elc] Error 1
Thanks a great deal for your time.

I would suggest that unless you need org to be available to all users on
your computer, you install it somewhere in your home directory. I
install org in #/.emacs-lisp/org and my makefile looks like:
# Name of your emacs binary
EMACS=emacs
# Where local software is found
prefix=~/.emacs-lisp
# Where local lisp files go.
lispdir = $(prefix)/org
Also what OS are you using - Linux, Windows, Mac?
Ian.

Don't you have /usr/share/emacs/lisp/url/url.el(c) ?
What says
C-h v load-path RET
and
M-x emacs-version RET
?
I never read about that issue here. That's why I wonder if you use an
old emacs version or something. I think url comes with emacs since a
while now, but I might be wrong.
make is no problem here.
Best,
Sebastian
