You might need to change some macro calls to use cl-<name> instead of <name>.$ egrep 'require[ ]*'\''cl' .emacs.d/init.el (require 'cl-lib)Then it's from a package and you need to identify it. You can try (untested): find .emacs.d/ -name "*.el" -exec grep "(require 'cl)" {} \;find .emacs.d/ -name "*.el" -exec grep "(require 'cl)" {} \; -printThere are so many matches: $ find .emacs.d/ -name "*.el" -exec grep -q "(require 'cl)" {} \; -print 2>/dev/null | sort -u | wc -l 40 So this method is basically useless for finding the problem.
I just tried it, indeed quite a few packages contain some form of (require 'cl) as a backward-compatibility tool (52 matches in my case). Most of those are test files which are never loaded in a normal emacs session.
To narrow the search, you can use egrep -q "^\(require 'cl\)" instead. In my .emacs, the matches go from 52 to 15. Interestingly enough, exactly one of them is loaded at init time (key-combo.el), without any warning.
[Btw I don't think that sort -u is useful in your command line, find should not return the same file twice. You might also want to add -type f to the find call, to avoid errors with packages with .el in the name (such as ansi.el or prescient.el).]
Good luck, Thibaut
