Thanks to these comments I think I got to the bottom of it! The MELPA package org-mac-link (latest is org-mac-link-20160808.220) has clearly continued being updated with new code that include calls to org-link-set-parameters. The org-mac-link.el in package org-plus-contrib has the code that works with org v8. Everyone who has been using MELPA, especially with use-package, to load org-mac-link.el has not been using the code in org-plus-contrib. I removed the downloaded org-mac-link package files and the corresponding depends-on line from my Cask file, and reverted to old require syntax to load org-mac-link .

* Re: org-link-set-parameters missing in ELPA version 2016-09-02 9:34 ` Heikki Lehvaslaiho @ 2016-09-11 18:55 ` Richard Kim 0 siblings, 0 replies; 8+ messages in thread From: Richard Kim @ 2016-09-11 18:55 UTC (permalink / raw) To: emacs-orgmode I added the following elisp code at the start of my ~/.emacs to deal with this problem. My analysis of the problem is described in the comments. In short the root cause seems to be loading built-in org.el during initialization rather than org.el from either org-plus-contrib or org add-on packages. Symbols such as org-link-set-parameters are not defined in built-in org.el of emacs 25. They are defined only in newer versions of org package. I use my own build of the following which is re-built once a week or two: - emacs 25 from 'emacs-25' git branch - org and org-plus-contribute packages from git source files - spacemacs from 'develop' git branch If I have erred in my analysis of the root cause, please let me know. What I know is that before I started using the code below, I would get emacs startup error every time after I removed all installed packages. With this code, I no longer see any failure. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; Bootstrap `org-plus-contrib' and/or `org' packages ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; The purpose of this section is to make sure that org-mode package(s) are ;; installed and setup early on so as to prevent built-in org-mode files from ;; getting loaded. The built-in org-mode commands are autoloaded so that none ;; of the built-in org files are actually loaded when emacs starts up. However ;; it is easy to get one or more org files to get loaded directly or indirectly ;; by using one or more org mode functions. Once that happens, then it is ;; nearly impossible to fix this. For example if built-in org.el gets loaded, ;; then subsequent (require 'org) will not reload org.el even if an org package ;; was installed which provided newer org.el! A workaround is to make sure that ;; the org package(s) are not only installed, but also activated (i.e., ;; `load-path' setup) so that the first time (require 'org) is done, it will ;; cause the newer org.el to be loaded rather than the built in one. ;; Where to find packages to install from. If spacemacs is loaded, then it is ;; important that `package-archives' value here is the same as the one embedded ;; in spacemacs. Otherwise strange errors may pop up. (if (file-directory-p "/u/me/public_html/elpa/elpa/") (custom-set-variables `(package-archives `(("my-elpa" . ,(expand-file-name "/u/me/public_html/elpa/elpa/")) ("my-orgmode" . ,(expand-file-name "/u/me/public_html/elpa/orgmode/"))))) (custom-set-variables `(package-archives `(("melpa" .

(setq package-enable-at-startup nil) ;; We must initialize packages before we can call `package-installed-p'. ;; However just do minimal setup (via 'no-activate optional argument), i.e., do ;; not activate any packages. Without `no-activate', all installed packages are ;; activated. (unless (bound-and-true-p package--initialized) (package-initialize 'no-activate) (package-refresh-contents) ;; I use `use-package' to install and setup all packages except `use-pacakge' ;; itself.

(if (package-installed-p 'use-package) (package-activate 'use-package) ; just activate if already installed (package-install 'use-package)) ;; We *must* install `org-plus-contrib' or `org' package very early on so that ;; these shadow the built-in org-mode files. If this is not done early, and one ;; or more of the built-in org-mode files are loaded during emacs startup, then ;; failures may arise later on while installing `org-plus-contrib' or `org' ;; packages.
