When I try to install Hyperbole, it fails with
(error "Key sequence C-h A starts with non-prefix key C-h")

This probably happens because I have C-h bound to
backward-delete-char-untabify.

Best,
Ihor

This should have been resolved the Hyperbole source tree where we have
used help-map, wherever that is bound, rather than "C-h" literally.  You
must rebind help-map to some other character and not just overwrite it.

Thanks! Confirming that I can load Hyperbole without errors now.
