If you're using BBDB from CVS take a look at bbdb-obsolete.el in the

One possible answer to Dan's problem is to use EUDC (I need it so I
can query an LDAP server as well as BBDB, but it'll work fine with
bbdb alone). EUDC provides a configurable completion format.

Does anyone other than me still use this? I had a heck of a time
getting SyncBBDB 2.3 to work with the perl 5.6.1 on redhat 7.3. I
needed to make it work with Digest::MD5 from CPAN as the older MD5
that either came with SyncBBDB or maybe pilotmgr itself would not
work. The fixes were simple but
bbdb-elide-record is no more...
bbdb-toggle-records-display-layout is, I'm pretty sure, the right thing.

I'm not aware of anything for dealing with generic CSV's, but I've
found that if the phase of the moon is just right, bbdb-snarf-region,
with region set to a single CSV record, gets it close enough to right
that I can live with the minimal tweaking I have to do afterwards.

I did something like this recently. I think the easiest thing to do
would be to grab them all and use bbdb-show-duplicates to clean

according to the documentation in bbdb 2.33, bbdb-initialize should be
able to take sc or supercite as argument. I just call it with no
arguments, which insinuates everything it can. Of course, I only use
it for gnus and message so I have no idea if anything else is actually
working :-)

With recent versions of SyncBBDB, you can set a pilot-ignore field in
the BBDB for records you don't want exported. In fact, if you've
already pushed some, adding the pilot-ignore will cause them to be
deleted from the pilot.

What have I done wrong?
You've installed a development version and uncovered a bunch of

several others reported last week), a cvs
This has worked pretty much forever but I've apparently got a problem

at the attached backtrace and figure out
Okay, this is officially irritating me.

Actually, I do have autoconf, but not a sufficiently recent version to
generate the configure script and I don't want to wait for my sysadmin

configure script.
Fair enough. Modifying .cvsignore to include configure seems to have
solved the problem. I guess I don't grok CVS well enough to
understand the problem but I don't want to cause any pain. I wonder
if adding configure to .cvsignore in the repository would be
appropriate, though since it's

I don't disagree. It was just that given the original poster's
