When the home-built Gnus was configured with default settings and the "would-be real Gnus package" is that which is distributed by XEmacs.org, then yes, that is correct. SEH> Would the real Gnus package wind up in SEH> /lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages? Providing it is the one distributed by XEmacs.org, yes. The _only_ packages that should be in (xemacs|mule)-packages/ are the "official" packages that are distributed by XEmacs.org. The site-packages/ directories are for other packages. That's why the Gnus from Gnus.org defaults to installing into site-packages/. SEH> Just for kicks, I tried symlinking ~/.xemacs/site-packages to SEH> ~/usr/local/lib/xemacs/site-packages (under which my current SEH> Gnus build sits), but XEmacs did not find Gnus in the lisp/gnus SEH> directory below. OK, that's weird. That should have worked. I'll have to test that. I'll get back to you on that. -- |---------------------| | Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. | | The proof of the pudding, is under the crust. | |---------------------------------| --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Eicq - The XEmacs ICQ Client iEYEABECAAYFAj/+FIQACgkQHSfbS6lLMAMdxACghi+H6RnMuM2vj8vBztOjJsfS pIgAn1R1o0ubxT/NdFvMB1FeJ6kul/mk =XGZl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
