It looks as if the script tests for emacs, but not for xemacs, so I still needed to use an EMACS=xemacs argument for the make. A make install (which looks like it should adjust some permissions and install the info files in /usr/local/info) fails for want of mkinstalldirs: em:/usr/local/lib/xemacs/qgnus#make EMACS=xemacs install cd lisp && make EMACS=xemacs install xemacs -batch -q -no-site-file -l ./dgnushack.el -f dgnushack-compile Loading ./lpath.el... /bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs ../mkinstalldirs: Can't open ../mkinstalldirs *** Error code 2 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. em:/usr/local/lib/xemacs/qgnus# -- I've always wanted to be a dilettante, but I've never quite been ready to make the commitment.
