I had this problem also. I believe you need version 24.4 or greater of
emacs which is not packaged with ubuntu trusty. This required me to
build emacs from source. I found some good instructions here:

http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/10/emacs-24-4-released-install-in-ubuntu-14-04/

It turned out to be mostly painless.

Good luck.
