Above you are writing about "checking out". I'm not sure if you mean "test" or "check out from CVS". In the latter case all you need is the `cvs ...' command. The stuff below is not necessary. > | 2.

The path for the --with-emacs option looks like you haven't properly installed Emacs. The lispdir you specified is independent of Emacs versions, so it does not distinguish between "emacs23" and "standard emacs" unless those are installed below different prefixes. Info files are nowadays installed below $PREFIX/share/info. > | 4. No errors?

You could compile different AUCTeX versions with the Emacs with the lowest version number into separate directories not in load-path and add only one of those directories to load-path upon start-up. Personally I would not bother with a parallel installation. -- Ralf _______________________________________________ bug-auctex mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex
