In BBDB 1.49, there is a problem with autoloading the file "bbdb-ftp". It appears that this file uses a function "bbdb-completing-read-record" which is defined in "bbdb-com.el". But, "bbdb-com.el" is not require'd in "bbdb-ftp.el". I'm not sure if the proper fix is to add a "(require 'bbdb-com)" to "bbdb-ftp.el" (which is what I did in the short run), or if the offending function should be moved to a some place else which is require'd by "bbdb-ftp.el" Note that this problem only manifests itself if I try to use "bbdb-ftp" before loading any other part of BBDB. -lipp --- So this is what it feels like to be potato salad
