Hello! I experienced a small problem while installing xemacs-21.2-b12 on my intel linux 2.2.2/glibc-2.1 system. As usual I configured ./configure --prefix= i586-linux-gnu And as I expected, the things that should go in exec-/doc-directory were installed to /lib/xemacs-21.2-b12/i586-linux-gnu. But when xemacs starts up it searches in /lib/xemacs-21.2-b12/i586-pc-linux, the directory derived from the canonical arch name and complains about exec-/doc-directory not being correctly set. I replaced the occurences of i586-pc-linux with i586-linux-gnu in config.status, reran it, and installation went fine. Martin
