Hi,
sorry something went wrong.
I wanted to send the email in gnus,
it didn´t allow me if I don´t "fix the continuation? lines"
I had to say yes.
after that
I sent it,
and now a mess.
that´s new in gnus, I didn´t have that earlier.
Without fixing the continuation? lines it doesn´t allow me to send the mail.
1: thanks for clarification to Bob Newell
2:
I have that in my init.el file:
;;BBDB: Address list von Josep Bigorra
(add-to-list 'load-path
"/gnu/store/yldh1rv4qlfqs25fgxw4d0n3rz6yiwmv-emacs-bbdb-3.2.2.4")
(require 'bbdb)
(bbdb-initialize 'message 'gnus 'sendmail)
(add-hook 'gnus-startup-hook 'bbdb-insinuate-gnus)
(setq bbdb/mail-auto-create-p t
bbdb/news-auto-create-p t)
;;auto-complete emacs address using bbdb UI
(add-hook 'message-mode-hook
'(lambda ()
(flyspell-mode t)
(local-set-key (kbd "TAB") 'bbdb-complete-name)))
;; von Bob Newell
(setq bbdb-complete-mail t)
(setq bbdb-message-all-addresses t)
(setq bbdb-completion-list t)
(setq bbdb-complete-mail-allow-cycling t)
(setq bbdb-completion-display-record nil)

I added the exact package in the load-path:
but I am not sure, if that is right.
(in Guix the package looks like that)
Normally you add only the path of directories.
4.
Once I got the backtrace:
`bbdb-complete-name` is an obsolut command (as of 3.0);
use `bbdb-complete-mail` instead
I changed it here:
(local-set-key (kbd "TAB") 'bbdb-complete-name)))
after doing it, it didn´t change.
it does not work either.
thanks for help

here the old setup:

Here my init.el part for BBDB:
thanks for clarification
I added the =?utf-8?Q?=E2=80=9Eexact_package=E2=80=9C?= into my init.el
file
and trying again
I got that message:
;;auto-complete emacs address using bbdb UI
(add-hook 'message-mode-hook
'(lambda ()
(flyspell-mode t)
(local-set-key (kbd "TAB") 'bbdb-complete-name)))
After changing that in Line 30:
(local-set-key (kbd "TAB") 'bbdb-complete-name)))
it =?utf-8?Q?didn=C2=B4t?= work either.
in Guix System the packages installed look like that.
(add-to-list 'load-path
"/gnu/store/yldh1rv4qlfqs25fgxw4d0n3rz6yiwmv-emacs-bbdb-3.2.2.4")
(require 'bbdb)

I am not sure if adding the exact package is right:
(add-to-list 'load-path
"/gnu/store/yldh1rv4qlfqs25fgxw4d0n3rz6yiwmv-emacs-bbdb-3.2.2.4")
because normally you add only the folder
where it is located: /gnu/store/

My setup was meant to be in addition to yours, not instead of
it. But I really don't know about that error message. Maybe
you can turn on tracing on error.
