There's simply not enough information in the package layout, so the right fix is going to be quite involved. It'll have to wait until 21.1 or 21.2.

You want the stuff taking precedence to be loaded after so they can override whatever was before. The problem is that the system-installed ones are loaded *instead* of those in ~/.xemacs/packages. (Well, not really, but the auto-autoloads loaded second doesn't *do* anything.) I'll submit a patch to change the order for now. -- Cheers =8-} Chipsy Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla
