Previous installers may have set EMACSPACKAGEPATH.
IIRC, the 21.4.13 cygwin install sets EMACSPACKAGEPATH.
It's hard for current installers to know whether removing the registry
key is what the user wants.
Vin, would it be possible for InnoSetup to detect this old registry
settings and query the user whether the entry should be removed?
I think even telling the user about the issue at install-time would be
valuable.
Yes, I can erase the setting of EMACSPACKAGEPATH from the registry at
install time, but I'm not sure that's the right thing to do. Maybe I
can detect it and allow the user the choice of clobbering
EMACSPACKAGEPATH. I'll investigate that option.
Volker - does the current cygwin kit set EMACSPACKAGEPATH?
