Brian,
Having got some similar holes in my feet I install in my /home directory.
In my Makefile I have:
# Where local software is found
prefix=~/emacs
# Where local lisp files go.
lispdir = $(prefix)/org
In my .emacs:
(setq load-path (cons "~/emacs/org" load-path))
Thus any mistakes only affect my /home directory an so are more easily
fixed. If you are the only user of the computer, this method works well.
Ian.
