For now I've changed within layers/+emacs/org/packages.el
I set (org :location elpa :min-version "9.7.8")
to instead be (org :location elpa :version "9.6.7")
, then ran package-delete
on org
, then restarted emacs, then did package-recompile-all
, and that seemed to work. I feel like there's probably a better way though.
The recommended fix https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam/issues/2361 seems to be to pin org mode to a specific versions
From reading that issue it seems it should actually work with newer Org versions, and is rather a matter of ensuring correct byte-compilation. I also had trouble when when upgrading to Org 9.7, as predicted in https://yhetil.org/emacs-devel/8735112ttw.fsf@localhost/T/#u. I think the same underlying problem led to this issue being reported, although there is actually nothing wrong with org-appear.
I don't think we have a proper way to pin package versions, the actual idea in Spacemacs is to use the latest and greatest package versions all the time. Assuming that incompatibilities are solved fast and happen very seldomly.
If it happens anyway then changing the layer is the right way to go.

That is the most flexible way I think. One other way that I just used for persp-mode (which introduced an annoying bug/feature after the latest update that I planned to investigate at some later point) is rolling back the package update and then adding the package to dotspacemacs-frozen-packages
to keep it from updating.
There's some kind of bug in org-mode that makes
org-roam-db-sync
fail on files with certain kinds of links. The recommended fix https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam/issues/2361 seems to be to pin org mode to a specific versions.use-package
and doom emacs users have shared how to do this, however I'm not clear on how to do this in spacemacs from my configuration.One option would possibly be to override the layer package: https://develop.spacemacs.org/doc/FAQ.html#how-to-override-a-layer-package however I feel like I'm probably missing an easier solution.
Many years ago a method to do this was issued as a PR: https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/pull/6575 but closed without merge.
Is there a way in spacemacs to pin a package version similar to doom's
(package! org :pin "5890ac")
?
