ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS emacs can't find assoc

  • 772

Just upgraded to 24.04.1 LTS, but my emacs configuration file can no longer load. Gives this error:

File is missing: Cannot open load file, No such file or directory, assoc

Seems lisp cannot find "assoc" any more. This worked just before upgrade from 22LTS.

GNU Emacs 29.3 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.41, cairo version 1.18.0) of 2024-04-01, modified by Debian

uname -a Linux BBalien 6.8.0-45-generic #45-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Aug 30 12:02:04 UTC 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

    My understanding is that assoc was depreciated from emacs 24.2. Ubuntu 24.04 is installing emacs –

    GNU Emacs 29.3 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.41, cairo version 1.18.0) of 2024-04-01, modified by Debian

    You can search your startup files for this with the following script: -

     find ~/.emacs.d -name "*.el" -exec grep -H "(require 'assoc)" {} \;

    The following link, I think (but I am no expert), suggests a solution.

    I hope this was of some help
