Re: [O] Upgrade org-mode over a older distribution version

[Michael Baum]

Many thanks. I was afraid of something like that. So the idea is that a set or org-mode files under site-lisp takes precedence over the built-in files and that's how emacs knows which ones to run?

Never touch these files, they belong to Emacs.  You need to install into
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp or, if you want to do really fancy things
with multiple Emacs versions, /usr/share/emacs/23.2/site-lisp.  So pull
current master from Git and do:

make up2

This assumes sudo will be able to obtain administrative rights.  Make in
master is already set up to place orgmode into the right spot.

Achim.
