Output of "xemacs -debug-paths"?
Attached. working.NOT.txt is what I get with --prefix=/usr and working.txt
with --prefix=/usr/share/xemacs-21.5-b28. Installation is from
the --prefix=/usr (non-working) one.
Hm, even the working one shows "/usr/" in emacs-roots and emacs-data-roots;
not sure if I asked for or want that... at least if it takes precedence
over "/usr/share/xemacs-21.5-b28/"?
