Can you provide more information? The error, what you were doing, etc?
The last time I git pulled perhaps a week or so ago, I tried following
Worg like so:[1]
,---
| emacs -batch -Q -L lisp -l ../UTILITIES/org-fixup -f
org-make-autoloads-compile
`---

It failed. I inspected the dit directory and noticed that it's  not
../UTILITIES anymore; all of the make stuff is in ../mk. Could that be
the problem if you're following Worg?

As an aside, I just tried re-compiling to check and I noticed that if
I follow Worg and cd into /path/to/org.git/mk and then run =emace
-batch ... ../mk/org-fixup.el ...=, I get the error:
,---
| Symbol's function definition is void: org-find-library-dir
`---

If I cd to /path/to/org.git and run the command with only one perios
(=emacs ... ./mk/org-fixup.el ...=), then it works. But =M-x
org-version= spits out something related to org-fixup and isn't a real
version number.

In any case, I can still compile as far as I know. Sorry if this
wasn't your issue, but with the lack of details no one will be able to
help you diagnose the problem.


Best regards,
John
