Re: [Ebib-users] Emacs 24.1

[Joost K. <joo...@fa...>]

Hi Tom,

it seems the relevant update is already on github... Are you getting your
code from there? If so, then perhaps you need to change the path to the
ebib.el(c) file in your .emacs, because I've moved it from the src
subdirectory to the the top dir. Perhaps you have an old .elc file lying
around.

BTW, I'm planning to turn ebib into a package and make it available through
melpa ( http://melpa.milkbox.net/ ) but I'm not sure when I'll get around
to doing that...

Best,

Joost
