Vanilla configuration errors on start-up #126

I removed my existing .emacs.d and renamed the contents master to .emacs.d. Then I ran emacs --live-safe-mode --debug-init, and received the following error message:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "`cl-labels' with dynamic scoping is not implemented")
  signal(error ("`cl-labels' with dynamic scoping is not implemented"))
  error("`cl-labels' with dynamic scoping is not implemented")
  ...

Beneath this is a whole load of lisp that contains control characters so is difficult to copy and paste. Please let me know if you need this.

I am running Linux Mint 15 (based on Ubuntu 13.04). In addition to emacs24 I also have clisp and slime installed. Do you have any idea what could be causing this issue? I have tried fiddling around, removing various libraries, but everything seems quite tightly coupled (as far as I can tell - I am a real newbie when it comes to Lisp) and so trying to debug this myself is giving me a bit of a headache.

Hi there,

Emacs Live now requires Emacs 24.3 and above. I've updated the checker now to reflect this change. If you upgrade your Emacs, it should fix your issues. Please let me know if this helps...
