That would be a good idea, I remember having exactly that problem in the
past using the starter-kit, but I worked it out somehow.

At the moment I seem to have a more basic problem, since starting with
emacs -Q the system knows about the org directory:

M-x locate-library RET org.el:
Library is file /usr/share/emacs/24.2/lisp/org/lisp/org.el

which is a symlink to /home/tj/gitclone/org-mode/lisp/org.el:

  /usr/share/emacs/24.2/lisp:
  drwxr-xr-x  2 root root    4096 18. Nov 08:40 obsolete
  lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root      26 30. Apr 2012  org -> 
/home/tj/gitclone/org-mode
  -rw-r--r--  1 root root   10926 23. Aug 07:33 outline.el.gz
  -rw-r--r--  1 root root   35745 24. Aug 11:58 outline.elc

but when I try to load org.el (e.g. from dired) I get an error. 

Evaluating (load-library "org.el") in the *scratch* buffer gave me a
better error message than before, so the problems seems to be in line
16185-16186 in org.el:

(org-define-obsolete-function-alias
  'org-days-to-time 'org-time-stamp-to-now "24.3")
