Tramp tries to follow the installation rules of (X)Emacs Makefiles (from CVS). The defaults are: prefix=/usr/local # default Emacs ----- datadir=$(prefix)/share lispdir=$(datadir)/emacs/site-lisp infodir=$(prefix)/info XEmacs ------ datadir=$(prefix)/lib lispdir=$(datadir)/xemacs/site-packages/lisp/tramp infodir=$(datadir)/xemacs/site-packages/info All variables can be overwritten during configure or make. Nevertheless, I start to doubt whether these are good values: - if one takes prefix=/usr (as proposed currently in the doc), /usr/info doesn't exist by default. See above. - the XEmacs default values install into the same place the XEmacs packages are installed. But both installation targets shouldn't interfer. So the following rules would be more convenient I believe: prefix=/usr/local # default Emacs ----- datadir=$(prefix)/share lispdir=$(datadir)/emacs/site-lisp infodir=[-d $(prefix)/info] ? $(prefix)/info : $(datadir)/info XEmacs ------ datadir=$(prefix)/lib lispdir=$(datadir)/xemacs/site-lisp infodir=$(datadir)/xemacs/info What do people think about? > Thank you, > > cbd.
