While trying to install a CVS version of AUCTeX which will be placed into the site-packages directory, I was bitten by the same bug. Looking at the output of `M-x report-xemacs-bug RET':
./configure [...] '--package-path=~/.xemacs:~/.xemacs/packages:~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages::/usr/share/xemacs21/xemacs-packages:/usr/share/xemacs21/mule-packages:/usr/share/xemacs21/site-packages' 'i386-debian-linux' it seems that site-packages was placed deliberately after xemacs-packages. This contradicts the search order described in XEmacs' Lispref manual: ,----[ 3.1 The User View ] | Second, the hierarchies below each root are searched in the order | `site-packages', `infodock-packages', `mule-packages', then | `xemacs-packages'. `---- Could this please be fixed. It makes it impossible to provide or install packages which are supposed to override the packages installed by the XEmacs package management system without the user/administrator having to manually delete the old version. -- Ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
