Update of orgmode broke my setup

Update of orgmode broke my setup

[Detlef Steuer]

Hi,

after upgrading my orgmode installation I get:
----------
An error has occurred while loading `/home/steuer/.emacs':

Symbol's value as variable is void: org-agenda-mode-map

To ensure normal operation, you should investigate and remove the
cause of the error in your initialization file.  Start Emacs with
the `--debug-init' option to view a complete error backtrace.
---------

I'm using a setup followig Wiegley
http://www.newartisans.com/blog_files/org.mode.day.planner.php

The effect is, that agenda commands like C-a a don't work any more.

Ok, it must be simple, but I can't find it at the moment.
Any hint?

Could you add details of your setup?  Emacs version, previous and
new versions of Org, using git or release versions etc.

I just updated from git repo, no issues here (WinXP, Emacs22.2,
Org at commit 9919ff82a0f2952d6f36e13f242e6c23d96da14c).  It may
not resolve your error but you may consider the suggestion below.

  > gives error

I think an (easier and cleaner, I think) alternate way to achieve
this would be something like this:

(setq org-use-fast-todo-selection t)
(setq org-todo-keywords
      '((sequence "TODO(t)"
                  "STARTED(s)"
                  "WAITING(w)"
                  "DELEGATED(l)" "|"
                  "DONE(d)"
                  "DEFERRED(f)")))

Fast selection shortcuts this way can also record the time of
state change and/or take a note at the time of switching states.

Yes.  The agenda mode map is not known before org-agenda is loaded.   
You need to wrap this into eval-after-load "org-agenda", of do this in  
org-agenda-mode-hook.

It's probably because org-agenda-mode-map is not defined in org.el but in org-agenda.el
so you'll need to split the eval-after-load into two pieces:

(eval-after-load "org"
  '(progn
     (add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("py" . emacs))

     (define-prefix-command 'org-todo-state-map)
     (define-key org-mode-map "\C-cx" 'org-todo-state-map)
     (define-key org-todo-state-map "x"
       #'(lambda nil (interactive) (org-todo "CANCELLED")))
      etc. etc.
)

and 


(eval-after-load "org-agenda"
  '(progn
     (define-key org-agenda-mode-map "\C-n" 'next-line)
     etc. etc.
)

Nick

Out of curiousity, I wonder why should OP see the error now on
upgrading from 6.04 to HEAD?  I think Org was split into multiple
files quite a while ago.
