BBDB and icicles
Hello, I'm trying to use bbdb with icicles, and I'm having some trouble to make it work. I'm discussing with the author, but in the meantime I have a couple questions. First, is anyone able to use bbdb (current version from melpa, which is Version: 20140123.1541 according to the package list) with icicles? Did you do anything special to make it work? Second, it seems that icicles relies on `bbdb-version' to choose whether to extend bbdb-complete-name or bbdb-complete-mail. However, on my system, bbdb-version returns: BBDB version @PACKAGE_VERSION@ (@PACKAGE_DATE@) which is not helpful at all. Is it a problem from melpa?

I have to admit I've been spoiled by how easy it is to install packages using Melpa. I assume you're not the person who put bbdb on Melpa, and that I should file a bug there. Is this correct? If you wait a few more days, BBDB 3.1 will be released. Then it will be easier to properly install BBDB then right now when you need a rather recent installation of autotools for this. Great. I'll try again then. Thanks, Alan -- Managing the Performance of Cloud-Based Applications Take advantage of what the Cloud has to offer - Avoid Common Pitfalls.

Based ony my own (limited!) interaction with the melpa guys, I'd have little hope that they will respond to such a bug report. They simply grab the lisp code from whatever repository it is in. They do not want to get involved in anything beyond that (say, Melpa does not provide either the TeX files for printing BBDB).
