* Warning (initialization): Your `load-path' seems to contain your `.emacs.d' directory @ 2013-12-18 19:27 Paul Harper 2013-12-18 19:31 ` Jambunathan K 0 siblings, 1 reply; 3+ messages in thread From: Paul Harper @ 2013-12-18 19:27 UTC (permalink / raw) To: emacs-orgmode [-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 986 bytes --] I am an emacs and org-mode newbie. I am mainly coming to Emacs for Org-Mode. So am using Eric Schulte's Emacs Starter Kit 24. I put this in .emacs.d. It is suggested in the kit "Move the resulting directory to ~/.emacs.d " <http://eschulte.github.io/emacs24-starter-kit/#fn.1> http://eschulte.github.io/emacs24-starter-kit/ When I start Emacs I get the following error. "Warning (initialization): Your `load-path' seems to contain your `.emacs.d' directory: /home/username/.emacs.d/ This is likely to cause problems... Consider using a subdirectory instead, e.g.: /home/username/.emacs.d/lisp" I am uncertain how I should proceed now. I suspect this will be a common problem for new people. How should I setup the Emacs Starter Kit? Move the whole kit to /home/username/.emacs.d/lisp ? Put the init.el in .emacs.d?

I had seen that thread but it is still unclear to me what that means. I just found this which has some discussion from Eric Schulte himself. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2013-04/msg01777.html I'll have to go and read this. If I get a solution I'll make sure I post it.
