Problems with site packages
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
