Re: 21.5 maybe not finding package roots? [was: Byte-compiler tests fail]

nk> everything runs smoothly. I only wonder, why I (or others) nk> haven't noticed this, err, feature, by now. It has been noticed, in various contexts. XEmacs is simply not as flexible in adapting to random user setups as it used to be. Partly Michael did some pruning away of some "backwards compatibility" code a couple of months ago. This may have for some reason suddenly manifested in your most recent builds. nk> Or should I have R some FM? Yeah, probably. However, I know there is some documentation, but it's not yet as complete and easy to find as we'd like. I think the "canonical setup" is by now pretty well explained in "README.packages" and in the Texinfo docs, but the theory and troubleshooting are not. -- University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences Tel/fax: +81 (298) 53-5091 _________________ _________________ _________________ _________________ What are those straight lines for?
