[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 743 bytes --]

Hello,

Is there a command (or two) that will identify the locations of the
below-listed files/folders? I am using Ubuntu and it seems that there is
more than one emacs install on this computer and multiple files that *could*


The following is from the #makefile# found in the org.mode folder downloaded
from the repository.

##----------------------------------------------------------------------
##  YOU MUST EDIT THE FOLLOWING LINES
##----------------------------------------------------------------------

# Name of your emacs binary
EMACS=??

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

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

# Where info files go.
infodir = $(prefix)/share/infos

Thanks,
Shawn

If you have installed both versions of emacs using dpkg or apt-get then
the following command will display available versions of emacs on your system.

dpkg -l | grep emacs

In order to find the list of files that comes with the package just run
the following command with the package name from the previous command output.

dpkg -L <pkgname>

I hope this helps.

Thanks and Regards
Noorul

Hi,

if you did not compile emacs yourself, you at least have to change:

----------
prefix=/usr
----------

You can list your emacs binaries like this:
$ ls -l /usr/bin/emacs*

If installing for emacs-snapshot, you need to change in addition:
----------
lispdir = $(prefix)/share/emacs-snapshot/site-lisp/org-mode
infodir = $(prefix)/share/info
----------


Also note that the shipped install-info targets do not work on Ubuntu,
I add this to the Makefile:

,----[ Makefile ]
! install-info-ubuntu: $(INFOFILES)
!       if [ ! -d $(infodir) ]; then $(MKDIR) $(infodir); else true; fi ;
!       $(CP) $(INFOFILES) $(infodir)
!       $(INSTALL_INFO) --infodir=$(infodir) $(INFOFILES)
`----
Then run:
 $ sudo make install-info-ubuntu
