Hi Carsten,

Are the last three lines of the description for
org-enforce-todo-dependencies correct? --------------------------------------------------+
                                                                                         |

| org-enforce-todo-dependencies is a variable defined in `org.el'.                       |

|                                                                                        |

I set this variable with a setq in my .emacs long after loading org-mode
(uncompiled) and have never run into any issues with it.

| (require 'org-install)
`----

,----[ my .emacs line 1568 ]
| (setq org-enforce-todo-dependencies t)
`----

From the description it doesn't sound like my setup is supposed to work.

According to git you wrote this.

,----[ git blame lisp/org.el ]
| 2949012f lisp/org.el (Carsten Dominik    2009-02-01 23:49:03 +0100  2273) This variable needs to be set before org.el is loaded, and you need to

Well, yes - but Carsten knew[fn:1] there'd be someone (we won't mention
names :-) ) who would do that and took care to do the
add-hook/remove-hook thingie while setting up the mode when you open an
org file: see line 5016ff in org.el. So it sounds a bit more ominous
than it actually is.

OTOH, if your .emacs opens an org file between lines 18 and 1568, all
bets are off.

[fn:1] ... or maybe somebody did it and complained about it already: I
didn't search the ML.

``git blame'' fingers commit c11a0b2d which indicates that there were indeed
complaints.

I had forgotten all about this, but indeed, the hook makes sure
things are OK, so the sentence could be removed from the
docstring.
