Re: [O] org unavailable in ELPA package manager

[Max Roberts-Zirker]

Bastien and Jambunathan, 

- I am running Emacs 23.2.1
- launching Emacs from the terminal with ~$ emacs -Q made no difference (was that just to open up the Lisp interpreter?)
- I just successfully upgraded to Org-Mode version 7.6 using the "How do I install Org-mode from a ELPA-compatible tarball?" section from http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#installing-elpa

However, I'm not sure why this should have worked, since

- M-x list-packages RET displays "[No match]" in the bottom bar. 
- I also seem to have lost the ability to evaluate (C-x e returns a "no kdb macro has been defined" message).

I'm not sure what to do with http://repo.or.cz/w/emacs.git/blob_plain/1a0a666f941c99882093d7bd08ced15033bc3f0c:/lisp/emacs-lisp/package.el but I assume since I'm now running Org-Mode 7.6 it is no longer necessary.

Max...

There is :)

Can we start again with the problem at hand?

Here is how I read it:

- you use Emacs 23.2
- you do M-x list-packages RET
- you don't see "org" as a proposed ELPA package.

Is that right?  If so, does it happen when launching Emacs
with ~$ emacs -Q ?

Thanks for further details,
