Hi,

I just updates to the latest org and found the vcard export no longer works. I get

Exporting...
let*: Symbol's function definition is void: org-install-letbind

Debug gets me:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function org-install-letbind)
  (org-install-letbind)
(let* ((filename (or file org-contacts-vcard-file)) (buffer (if to-buffer (get-buffer-create to-buffer) (find-file-noselect filename)))) (message "Exporting...") (set-buffer buffer) (let ((inhibit-read-only t)) (erase-buffer)) (fundamental-mode) (org-install-letbind) (when (fboundp (quote set-buffer-file-coding-system)) (set-buffer-file-coding-system coding-system-for-write)) (loop for contact in (org-contacts-filter name) do (insert (org-contacts-vcard-format contact))) (if to-buffer (current-buffer) (progn (save-buffer) (kill-buffer))))
  org-contacts-export-as-vcard()


I use make and emacs 24.2.1.

I'm not sure it's related but on my server I get the same error - after changing the invocation. I now use

emacs -batch -l ~/.emacs.d/init.el -f org-contacts-export-as-vcard --kill

leading to aforementioned error. Before the update, I had to invoke

emacs someOrgFile.org -batch -l ~/.emacs.d/init.el -f org-contacts-export-as-vcard --kill

because otherwise it would fail to load some stuff required by org-contacts. Other exporters never had this issue. I suspect some require is missing in org-contacts.

Anyway, if I invoke this line now it fails, although interactively things load fine with the org file on the command line:

emacs someOrg.org -batch -l ~/.emacs.d/init.el
[...]
Symbol's value as variable is void: org-list-allow-alphabetical

To me, all of this points to some incorrect dependencies of load logic to -batch. Unfortunately I don't know how to diagnose such problems.

It's not urgent but seems like a clear bug to me.

Cheers,

Simon
