Hi,
I've installed xemacs from CVS this weekend and now I'm trying to
re-enable all the packages I used to use. But I'm having trouble
with packages which are not in the xemacs installer...
First, where do I put the Lisp files? README.packages says
$prefix/lib/xemacs/site-packages/ (i.e. by default
/usr/local/lib/xemacs/site-packages/ ), but that doesn't seem to work: I
have the remem.el file (from the Remembrance Agent,
http://rhodes.www.media.mit.edu/people/rhodes/RA/ ) in there
and yet evaluating (load "remem.el") gives just
Cannot open load file: remem.el
When I move remem.el to /usr/local/lib/xemacs-21.5-b3/lisp (which
I probably shouldn't...), it's found but still can't be loaded:
Cannot open load file: overlay
remem.el contains (require 'overlay) , so apparently I need some
other package - but which one? My previous xemacs version (RPM in
SuSE Linux 6.4, apparently based on xemacs 21.1.8) used to work...
Bye
Vasek
P.S. My Installation file is included - if you need any more
info about my setup please let me know...

Hi,
just for the record: I've been having a problem (2 problems,
actually)...

Adrian Aichner responded:
Put the file in
$prefix/lib/xemacs/site-packages/lisp
...
XEmacs does not have overlays.
They are available via the fsf-compat package, which you have to
Steve Youngs responded:
Simply mimic the hierarchy of the normal packages...
/usr/local/lib/xemacs/site-packages/lisp/pkgname/
...
You need the "fsf-compat" package.
..and your responses are correct and solve them, of course...
Thanks.
