I just had a problem with org-protocol not working. After plenty of
googling, reinstalling and fussing, I think that I solved it and I
believe that the problem was related that I was playing with different
Emacs versions in Ubuntu and momentarily I had no emacsclient. See for
example http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2092293
