I read Eric's message about updating org-asymptote.el today and thought I would get the latest to get this fix. When I went through the process of building I found it failed at the org-crypt file since I didn't have epg.el on my system. I found a copy of this file and thought I would try it and see if that fixed the problem. Alas, no. It is part of a bigger package - epa. So I found this and tried to build/install it. Oops. it requires gpg to be installed to build it. Fortunately, this is distributed with pre-compiled binaries for Windows so installing it and modifying makefiles was pretty simple to build epa. I got that installed and modified the makefile for org-mode so it can be found and I am back up and running. I also managed to do the same thing by deleting the org-crypt.el line from the LISPF entry in the makefile. Either would work for me since I don't expect to use org-crypt regularly. I went through the above steps because I thought I might actually try to play around with it for a while and see if it was of any use to me. However, for those who won't be using org-crypt as a normal part of their daily operation it is probably simpler to make the build/installation of org-crypt optional. That way the normal maintenance for those who do "simple" things stays, uh, simple. Mark
