Thanks, that was really easy, the installations tutorials available are a bit intimidating sometimes. Now, things seem to work. I'm a gnus user too, so your .emacs line work fine for me. cheers -- Thorsten -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ bbdb-info@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bbdb-info BBDB Home Page: http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/

Running "make bbdb" byte-compiles the .el files and generates bbdb-autoloads.el; running it in place works just fine. (If you're using VM, you'll also need to run "make vm".) As to making it work, based on an earlier thread on this list, I have the following in ~/.emacs (I use Gnus, as will be obvious): (require 'bbdb) (require 'bbdb-autoloads) (bbdb-initialize 'gnus 'message) (bbdb-mua-auto-update-init 'gnus 'message) I don't know whether all that is strictly necessary, but it works for me. -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ bbdb-info@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bbdb-info BBDB Home Page: http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/
Locally install git version of bbdb 3
Hi List, maybe a silly question: I cloned the git-version of bbdb 3 into ,- | ~/.emacs.d/sitelisp/ `- and I'm quite happy to keep everything in this place (since its a dropbox folder, referenced from other machines too). The folder is on the load-path already. Therefore I don't want to run the makefile that will install bbdb somewhere else. Isn't it just sufficient to just byte-compile all the .el files in the lisp folders and put a few lines (which ones?) in my .emacs, or are there more and other things going on under the hood when I run the makefile?
