I tried the following:
I changed my entry in ~/.emacs to read:
(setq load-path (cons
(expand-file-name
"/usr/tmp/gnus-5.8.2/lisp")
load-path))
It seems, that the new gnus file is there.
Now with M-x locate-library I am getting:
/usr/X11R6/lib/xemacs-20.4/lisp/gnus/gnus.elc
which is the file of the old (still in use) version.
I tried C-h v load-path RET, sorry I probably
did something wrong, I just got "no match".
But how can I finally get the new version on work ?
Now the above location in /usr/tmp is perhaps not
"great" but I always can move the whole folder
to another location.
What would be suitable....
Many thanks for all the patience and help.
Regards
