I'm on macOS Monterey and I'm using aquamacs as an IDE to ocaml. Ocaml is install with opam and everything was working well until I delete the wrong switch. Emacs is still working with tuareg in the console but I can't use aquamacs with it anymore.
There's so much error with the "Symbol's function definition is void" but I couldnt' find anyone talking about the register-definition-prefixes.
I try reinstalling opam and his packages and aquamacs from scatch, try editing the .emacs and the .opam-user-setup.el (the equivalent of init.el I thik) but nothing worked.
I understand that most of the errors caused by "Symbol's function definition is void" are a package that is not loaded, so I tried adding this to .opam-user-setup.el :
(require 'register-definition-prefixes)
But he wouldn't load it :
File error: Cannot open load file, No such file or directory, register-definition-prefixes
After searching register-definition-prefixes, the doc talk about Autoload by Prefixes and update-file-autoloads but I don't really understand how it works.
Here's the backtrace from aquamacs with the --debug-init :
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function register-definition-prefixes)

Edit :
It seems the function register-definition-prefixes is in subr which is part of GNU/Emacs. But because it's part of GNU/Emacs I can't require it. So it should work fine but it isn't.
Since aquamacs didn't have register-definition-prefixes defined for an unknown reason, like suggested I copied the definition of the function from subr directly at the begininng of my .emacs.
I still don't have a prompt when I launch tuareg but at least it work so thanks.
