I'm using Debian v11.5 on my Chromebook. I have used 'apt install' to load the pre-built version of Emacs 27.1. I've just found out that it installs a pre-built version of Org-9.3 in /usr/share/emacs/27.1/lisp. That directory is early in the load-path, so it appears to be loaded out of startup.el(?). Everything seems to be working fine in my setup of Emacs and Org.
I'd like to upgrade to org-9.6 from ELPA via the package-install in Emacs which installs it into ~/.emacs.d/elpa. I have a lot of use-package calls in my ,emacs to load everything, but it runs into problems with the mixed Org environment -- 9.3 is loaded at startup and 9.6 is "sort of" loaded by use-package. The errors I get are from some calls to use-package to load packages and are 'org-assert-version' errors (a few of the packages [AFAIK] have no relationship to Org [like hypernole]). Is there a proper way to do this? Do I really have to delete the built-in 9.3 version (by hand or package-delete?) or will that mess up something else? I saw mention of 'unload-feature' which is new to me -- would that be safe to use? -- David Masterson
