Re: [patch] improved: add TTL as defcustom to ox-icalendar

[Ian Garmaise]

Hi Detlef, this is mentioned in the docs but IMHO isn't strongly emphasized enough:

When installing or upgrading org-mode always run emacs -q to avoid loading init.  I had a lot of trouble when switching to elpa and this was the only way to get it to work.  In the end to be sure I deleted the old org-mode library from the disk  (using list-packages) and made doubly sure that there were no remnants.  Then restart with emacs -q and install from list-packages from elpa.

If you don't do this you run a strong risk of getting a mixed install.

Thank you for the hints.

Attached a diff -u version.

The patch in principle is unrelated to nextcloud. That's just my
use case. The addiditional TTL setting gives a hint to clients
when to reload an imported ics file that was exported from org.

Is there any document how to setup an org-mode developer environment?
Normally I use git, but I even struggled to use org from elpa instead
of the built-in version, so I avoided touching this house of cards :-)

Probably I should use a git clone instead of elpa, if I want to work
on org?

Thx for the feedback!
Detlef
