color-theme-initialize not defined?

[pchalasani]

I followed the instructions on your blog, installed emacs24, and started emacs in daemon mode using emacs --daemon, got no errors, then did emacsclient -c, which opens an emacs window with no errors. Then I do M_x color-theme-select, and it complains saying function definition is void: color-theme-initialize.

This is using the bare-bones out-of-the-box emacs24-starter-kit, with none of my personal stuff

Hmm, this is a bug in the version of color-theme available through the marmalade ELPA repository. I'll get in touch with the repository manager and see if we can get a fix pushed through (I'll update this thread when a fix is pushed).

As an interim solution I'd recommend downloading a different version of color-theme from here http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/color-theme/ and installing it in your source directory.

thanks for the report -- Eric

Thanks Eric for the quick reply, and also incidentally, thanks very much for putting up the starter kit.

customize-themes in Emacs 24 will largely obsolesce the color-theme package. You might want to have a look over here. I suggest closing this issue.

Hi,

See the commit from Dec. 12th "updating color theme information for Emacs24". I believe I have transitioned to the new Emacs24-specific theming support. If I have missed something or if there is more to be done please let me know (a patch would be ideal but specific suggestions would also be great).

Thanks,

[jrhorn424]

Sorry, Eric. I meant to direct that previous message to @pchalasani, in case he missed the commit you're talking about.
