I still get the same error. This is how my .emacs file looks:


;;; Emacs Load Path
(setq load-path (cons "~/work/mylisp" load-path))

(add-to-list 'load-path
             (expand-file-name "/usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/emacs-goodies-el"))


;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;; Load .el files
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

(require 'emacs-goodies)




I have tried to comment out:

(add-to-list 'load-path
             (expand-file-name "/usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/emacs-goodies-el"))

and then print the content of my load-path with:

M-x describe-variable RET load-path

and the result is:

load-path's value is
("~/work/mylisp" "/usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/emacs-goodies-el" 
"/usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/dictionaries-common" "/etc/emacs21" 
"/etc/emacs" "/usr/local/share/emacs/21.4/site-lisp" 
"/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp" "/usr/share/emacs/21.4/site-lisp" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/site-lisp/dictionaries-common" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/site-lisp/emacs-goodies-el" 
"/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp" "/usr/share/emacs/21.4/leim" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp" "/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/toolbar" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/textmodes" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/progmodes" "/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/play" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/obsolete" "/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/net" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/mail" "/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/language" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/international" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/gnus" "/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/eshell" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/emulation" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/emacs-lisp" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/calendar")

As can be seen the /usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/emacs-goodies-el path is 
already in my load-path without adding it in my .emacs file. So the 
error must have something to do with the:

(require 'emacs-goodies)

command...
