Could it be that you are pointing to the location of the package
sources and not to the place of the installed packages? XEmacs needs to
find the installed packages in order to populate the load path.
Er, yes, that's precisely what I'm doing. This should work, surely? At
the moment, there are only .el files in these directories. Will this
prevent XEmacs from recognising the directories as `load-path'
components?
What does "install" mean? It means, primarily, that files get copied to
/usr/local/share/.... So why would /usr/local/share/.... work, but my
source directory not? I'll try compiling all the packages and see if
that makes a difference.
