Robert,
Thanks. Indeed, it was not able to find-library for bbdb:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Can't find library bbdb")
signal(error ("Can't find library bbdb"))
error("Can't find library %s" "bbdb")
I thought I already had bbdb in my load path. In ~./emacs I have:
(setq load-path (nconc (list "~/lisp") load-path))
(setq load-path (append load-path (list
"~/elisp"
"~/elisp/bbdb"
...
)))
and I have ~/elisp/bbdb and in it a bunch of .elc files.
I didn't understand your point about adding (require...). I don't
think I compiled bbdb initially to use an e-mail client, and I start
bbdb with the M-x bbdb-name command rather than rely on an e-mail
client to do it. In any case, I use rmail, and have no init file for
it that I can see.
