Hello Everyone,

First of all thanks for creating such a great tool!! Kudos Dominik!!

Now, I updated orgmode and had minor problems with the installation.
The problem was because I use XEmacs so it requires the noutline.el
installed. Since I edited the following entries:

# Where local software is found
prefix=/root_dir/svn/usr/local

# Where local lisp files go.
lispdir = $(prefix)/share/emacs

when I type 'make install-noutline' it installs it in $(lispdir),
which is what I wanted (i.e., not in the standard lisp directory). The
$(lispdir) is of course added to the load-path in my init.el, but for
the remaining compilation of org.el it won't know to look for
noutline.el in there.

Now, since we need noutline.el to compile org.el for XEmacs and we
just installed it in $(lispdir), shouldn't the following line:

BATCH=$(EMACS) -batch -q

read like this instead:

BATCH=$(EMACS) -batch -q -l $(lispdir)/noutline

That is where my problem was and by making the change above it was
fixed. Notice that if $(lispdir) is set to the standard lisp directory
then the problem won't arise.

Well, I hope that this helps in case others encounter the same problem.

Thanks again,
--Miguel

You are right, this would be better.  However, the same line
then would not work for Emacs, so we need something still
better.  Maybe something like

BATCH=$(EMACS) -batch -q
        -eval '(add-to-list 'load-path "$(lispdir)")'

but that is still difficult with all the quoting and escaping of
quoting.  Does anyone here know how to make this work?

Hello Carsten,

Yep, I guess I missed that point... I tried your idea below, but it
didn't work on my end. If it works then maybe it is a more robust
solution. However, the following code worked for me for emacs and
xemacs. Note that it assumes that the EMACS variable is either emacs
or xemacs.

# Name of your emacs binary
EMACS=emacs

# Using emacs in batch mode.
ifeq ($(EMACS),xemacs)
  BATCH=$(EMACS) -batch -q -l $(lispdir)/noutline
else
  BATCH=$(EMACS) -batch -q
endif

Hope this helps.

Oops.  lispdir won't expand due to the single quotes.  Maybe this will
work a little bit better.

BATCH=$(EMACS) -batch -q -eval "(add-to-list (quote load-path) \"$(lispdir)\")"

That seems to work ok.  Miguel, can you confirm?
I am not sure if all versions of make have the
control structure you have been proposing?

Now it works. I'm not sure if there is a prettier way to do it, but to
me it seems like the right way.

Thanks to you both.
