If so, delete it. It did exist (due to the earlier installation attempt) and after I deleted it, `make' went through just fine! Whee! _However_, when I tried to install with `make install', I got exactly the same errors again. It seems that `make install' creates those destination directories, including the mentioned one, before update-elc.el is used and thus the directory exists again when it shouldn't. That is, output from `make install': . . . ./lib-src/make-path /usr/local/xemacs-21.4/share/xemacs-21.4.1/etc /usr/local/xemacs-21.4/share/xemacs-21.4.1/lisp /usr/local/xemacs-21.4/share/xemacs-21.4.1/i686-pc-linux /usr/local/xemacs-21.4/info /usr/local/xemacs-21.4/share/xemacs-21.4.1/i686-pc-linux /usr/local/xemacs-21.4/man /usr/local/xemacs-21.4/bin /usr/local/xemacs-21.4/share /usr/local/xemacs-21.4/lib /usr/local/xemacs-21.4/share/xemacs-21.4.1/lisp . . . make[1]: Entering directory `/.../xemacs-21.4-compiled/src' ./temacs -nd -batch -l /.../xemacs-21.4-compiled/src/../lisp/update-elc.el Loading /.../xemacs-21.4-compiled/src/../lisp/update-elc.el...
