Ah, good point.

The Debian package goes through some magic (in
/etc/emacs/site-start.d/50notmuch.el) to ensure that this directory is
added to the load-path.

Given that, I've just changed the default back to just install the files
into ${prefix}/share/emacs/site-lisp and made the Debian packaging
request ${prefix}/share/emacs/site-lisp/notmuch when it configures (see
below).

Thanks for the report,

Subject: [PATCH] Makefile: Install emacs code to site-lisp, not site-lisp/n=
otmuch

And just make the Debian packaging request site-lisp/notmuch like it
wants. Otherwise, the installed files won't appear on the load-path
so won't be found by emacs.
