Very strange! My GNU Emacs 23.3.1 has certainly an autoload cookie for browse-url-url-at-point in browse-url.el. I haven't used bzr emacs lately. > also, is there a guide for upgrading my settings to the new git > bbdb? quite a few symbols were removed, some have changed names; > it would be nice if the old names were marked as obsolete aliases > for the new ones so that emacs will warn me about them when I > compile my .emacs.

Very often, the rewrite implied that the details of the implementation have changed significantly (calling sequences of functions, allowed values of variables, etc). In that sense, simple aliases are often not possible. Yet I agree that it will facilitate migration for long-time BBDB users to put together a list summarizing how old variable and function names have been replaced by new ones. Also, I can compile a file bbdb-obsolete.el that declares all old bbdb variables as obsolete that are not used anymore (or with an obsolete alias if there is a new variable that provides, indeed, the same functionality with a new name). I've put this on my todo list! Roland ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Xperia(TM) PLAY It's a major breakthrough.
