[O] Installation problem? (new exporter)

[François Pinard]

Hi, gang.

I've difficulty to get the new exporter into movement.  After trying for
some time, I'm giving into this mailing list for help or advice.



First, "C-c C-e" yields "Cannot open load file: org-export".  I guess
that some old autoload is hiding somewhere, but I just do not find it.
Command "C-h k C-c C-e" tersely says:

   org-export-dispatch is an interactive autoloaded Lisp function.
   [Arg list not available until function definition is loaded.]
   Not documented.

Debugging on error is terse as well:

   Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "Cannot open load file" 
"org-export")

On this Ubuntu 12.10, I moved /usr/share/emacs/23.4/lisp/org/ and
/share/emacs23/site-lisp/org-mode/ elsewhere, just in case.  I had no
problems before using a recent Org, letting these older directories
there, but this does not mean there were no problem, of course.

To install Org, I merely "git clone" or "git pull" it, and then use
"make".  In the Make output, I see that autoloads are regenerated.



Second, the following Makefile entry (reduced) does not work anymore for
me:

   all:
        emacs -Q --batch --load publish.el --funcall org-publish-all

Here is file "publish.el" (reduced):

   (defvar api-org-distribution "~/emacs/_/org-mode")
   (add-to-list 'load-path (concat api-org-distribution "/lisp"))
   
   (require 'org)
   (message (org-version))
   
   (setq org-publish-project-alist
         `(("api"
            :base-directory "~/control3/api/"
            :publishing-directory "~/control3/api-html"
            )))

The "~/control3/api/" directory is already populated with many Org files
by another program.  Running "make" yields:

   7.9.3e
   No publishing function chosen

and no output is produced.  Sigh! :-)
