Re: Possible conflict with outline-magic

org-mode is derived mode based on outline-mode. "Derived" in Emacs means
that outline-mode-hook also runs in org-mode.

org-capture-mode is derived mode based on org-mode. So, it runs
org-capture-mode-hook, org-mode-hook, and outline-mode-hook.

The first version of the code you used is not valid:

>> (use-package outline-magic
>> ...
>>               (require 'outline-cycle))))

There is no 'outline-cycle feature provided by outline-magic package.
Hence, when you run org-capture, it is trying to run outline-magic-hook
that runs (require 'outline-cycle), which does not exist. Hence, the
error you observed.

I believe that the code you used (and copied from Example section of
outline-magic package) is carried out from the times when outline-magic
was called outline-cycle. You might consider reporting this as a bug in
outline-magic github page.

Best,
Ihor
