Select a package download site from Tools -> Packages -> Add Download Site and then do: 'M-x package-get-update-all'. You'll get an error saying it couldn't find version nil of package preview-latex. Now that's actually OK _providing_ PUI tries to update preview-latex last. If it does it first or somewhere in the middle, you're screwed because PUI bails out. n> Are they temporary enough to make it not worth bothering removing n> _pkg.el creation from preview-latex? Probably not. :-( I'll do my best to get something working as soon as I can, but at this stage I'm not prepared to give an ETA. Once I get things a bit better sorted out in my mind I'll post to -design a draft proposal of what I'd like to do. In that I'll state how long I expect it all to take. Footnotes: [1] Yes I know that structure is kind of brain-dead and it should be packagename/lisp rather than lisp/packagename. But that's what we use now so it would be best to stick with it until someone changes it. Can you tell that I'm warming to the idea of a different layout :-) -- |---<Steve Youngs>---------------<GnuPG KeyID: 10D5C9C5>---| | XEmacs - It's not just an editor. | | It's a way of life. | |------------------------------------&lt;youngs(a)xemacs.org&gt;---|
