I tried to build it:
johayek@Hayek5 $ ./configure
creating cache ./config.cache
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking for emacs... /usr/local/bin/emacs
checking where .elc files should go... $(prefix)/share/emacs/site-lisp
that's where the problem started, I assume -> `$(prefix)'
checking for makeinfo... /usr/bin/makeinfo
updating cache ./config.cache
creating ./config.status
creating Makefile
creating lisp/Makefile
creating texi/Makefile
johayek@Hayek5 $ make -n install
cd lisp && make EMACS=/usr/local/bin/emacs lispdir=/share/emacs/site-lisp install
the lispdir is not quite appropriate,
and that's how the Makefile looks:
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/tmp/gnus-5.6.29/lisp'
/usr/local/bin/emacs -batch -q -no-site-file -l ./dgnushack.el -f dgnushack-compile
/bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs /share/emacs/site-lisp
You don't actually want to create this as installation directory, do you?
[...]
And that's how the (generated) Makefile looks:
johayek@Hayek5 $ head Makefile
# Generated automatically from Makefile.in by configure.
lispdir = $(prefix)/share/emacs/site-lisp
srcdir = .
I added the `prefix = ' line to Makefile
(but actually Makefile.in and/or configure should be fixed,
but I'm not familiar with the mechanism):
johayek@Hayek5 $ head Makefile
# Generated automatically from Makefile.in by configure.
prefix = /usr/local
lispdir = $(prefix)/share/emacs/site-lisp
srcdir = .
..
(I have posted this problem report earlier -> 5.6.{24,27},
but people have probably been to busy then to notice this.)
