        Hi !

When make install'ing Gnus for XEmacs, the etc stuff goes to
package_prefix/etc/images/[gnus, smilies, and other stuff]

While the smiley library correctly detects this location, Gnus still expects
to find and etc/gnus directory and barfs when trying to display the splash
screen.

I'm afraid of fixing this without knowing if it also affects GNU Emacs (I
don't know if GNU Emacs uses the stuff in etc/). Besides, this raises an aside
question: gnus seems to only use etc/ for images, in which case having
etc/images/gnus is logical. However, maybe having etc/gnus directly would also
make sense (or perhaps only in the future when something else than glyphs
would be added).

Comments ?
