[ ... ] Stephen> ./configure '--prefix=/playpen/install.share' '--exec-prefix=/playpen/install.local' '--package-path=~/.xemacs::/playpen/install.share/xemacs/packages' '--with-mule' '--with-xim=xlib' '--with-xfs' '--with-sound=both' '--use-union-type=yes' '--debug' '--gung-ho=yes' '--cflags=-g -O2 -fno-caller-saves -Wall -Wno-switch' This can't work 'cause your packages are in .../xemacs/packages as opposed to .../lib/xemacs/packages. When you do a vanilla install, it can pick up the packages because the configure'd package-path points the right way. Once you move the installed hierarchy, it doesn't anymore. Generally, if you want to be able to move the installed hierarchy, don't specify anything beyond --prefix and --exec-prefix on the configure command line. You'll get even better mileage if you omit those as well. -- Cheers =8-} Chipsy Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla
