Do not apologize, I have noticed that the variable was obsolete and I have
tried to customize the new variable. I have even written the code
(when (featurep 'org-element) (load "org-element" t t))  in my init.el
(which is too big and really a mess), and it doe not work either...

Do not waste more time than me on this small problem which certainly comes
from my init.el...

Best regards,
