Certainly. So much that I can't even imagine why anybody would consider that TRT (although I do try, and will appreciate if you try to explain). > IOW, why should we assume that the version of NEWS in the source tree > is necessarily more up-to-date/useful than the one in the installation > directory. It could be, but then it could not be. Hm, it seems the misunderstanding is mutual. Whether some version is more up-to-date or useful (whatever that means) is besides the point. What I meant by "most relevant for the running executable" and "obvious" above was simply what seems to me a case of the principle of least surprise: if I run /usr/bin/emacs, I expect it to use the same PREFIX for other things, i.e. /usr/share/emacs.... If I run /usr/local/bin/emacs, I expect it to use /usr/local/share/emacs.... And if I run src/emacs, I expect it to use the source tree. Does that really seem less reasonable than your "TRT"? I can imagine the current behaviour being hard to change, but that still wouldn't make it the right thing IMO. --=20 =C5=A0t=C4=9Bp=C3=A1n
