>Description:
Lisp package ports should install in a emacs version neutral
directory, so that they will still work after an upgrade to emacs.
psgml and mpg123.el install in the right directory:
/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp
But bbdb, mule-ucs, speedbar, jde etc all install in:
/usr/local/share/emacs/21.2.
An upgrade to emacs 21.3 will make all these installation stop working.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Install in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp and modify subdirs.el if
necessary. Or see the debian package examples for bbdb, jde etc.
