Description Stefan Ring 2012-06-08 12:33:51 UTC
Description of problem:

In particular, the clocking feature does not work. C-c C-x TAB (org-clock-in) causes this message to be displayed: "Can't find library org".


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

24.0.95-1.fc17


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a lisp-interaction buffer
2. Type "(require 'org-clock)"
3. Press C-x C-e

  
Actual results:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Can't find library org")
  signal(error ("Can't find library org"))
  error("Can't find library %s" "org")
  find-library-name("org")
  (file-name-directory (find-library-name "org"))
  (expand-file-name "../contrib" (file-name-directory (find-library-name "org")))
  (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "../contrib" (file-name-directory (find-library-name "org"))))
  (expand-file-name "scripts" (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "../contrib" (file-name-directory (find-library-name "org")))))
  (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "scripts" (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "../contrib" (file-name-directory (find-library-name "org"))))))
  (expand-file-name "ditaa.jar" (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "scripts" (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "../contrib" (file-name-directory (find-library-name "org")))))))
  eval((expand-file-name "ditaa.jar" (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "scripts" (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "../contrib" (file-name-directory (find-library-name "org"))))))))
  custom-initialize-reset(org-ditaa-jar-path (expand-file-name "ditaa.jar" (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "scripts" (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "../contrib" (file-name-directory (find-library-name "org"))))))))
  custom-declare-variable(org-ditaa-jar-path (expand-file-name "ditaa.jar" (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "scripts" (file-name-as-directory (expand-file-name "../contrib" (file-name-directory (find-library-name "org"))))))) ("/usr/share/emacs/24.0.95/lisp/org/org-exp-blocks.elc" . 6097) :group org-babel :type string)
  require(org-exp-blocks)
  byte-code("\300\301!\210\300\302!\210\300\303!\210\300\304!\210\300\305!\210\300\306!\207" [require org org-macs org-agenda org-exp-blocks ob-exp org-src] 2)
  require(org-exp)
  byte-code("\300\301!\210\300\302!\210\303\304\305\306\307\310\311\312&\207" [require org org-exp custom-declare-group org-clock nil "Options concerning clocking working time in Org-mode." :tag "Org Clock" :group org-progress] 8)
  require(org-clock)
  eval((require (quote org-clock)) nil)
  eval-last-sexp-1(nil)
  eval-last-sexp(nil)
  call-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil nil)


Expected results:

org-clock is loaded


Additional info:

With the emacs-el package installed, it works as it should.

Comment 1 Mihkel Vain 2012-06-23 16:47:57 UTC
Any news on this one? Or is emacs-el package required now to be able to export org documents?

Comment 2 Jonathan Underwood 2012-06-25 12:50:57 UTC
My personal feeling is that we should (in the spirit of the emacs add-on packaging guidelines) no longer bother to split out the .el[.gz] files into a sub-package, but rather install them with the main package - they're useful for debugging, doc strings etc. In many ways they're as useful as .py files from python packages.

As to this specific problem, I wonder why org-mode isn't able to use the byte-compiled files, though.

Comment 3 Karel Klíč 2012-07-11 15:04:05 UTC
Thank you for such a good bug report.

The issue can be reproduced on emacs-24.1-1.fc17. The workaround (installing emacs-el) works.

Requiring org-clock results in requiring org-exp-blocks, which defines org-ditaa-jar-path. The definition results in evaluating (find-library-name "org"). The find-library-name function specifically looks for .el and .el.gz source code, deliberately ignoring .elc.

I think org-ditaa-jar-path could work with the locate-library function instead of find-library-name. I'm going to try that.



Jonathan, it is a good idea to merge emacs-el into emacs-common.  Please, feel free to change the spec file if you want to do it. I think it should go to rawhide only.
