71 Now that I looked this a bit more I tend to agree with David:
\r
73 default PREFIX is /usr/local
\r
75 and $ pkg-config emacs --variable sitepkglispdir
\r
79 /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp
\r
81 (in default case we should mangle /local/ there in between ... :/ ).
\r
83 package managers can add
\r
85 ./configure ---emacslispdir=`pkg-config emacs --variable sitepkglispdir`
\r
87 in their build scripts.
