Subject: Re: Load ESS lisp file from user directory instead of from shared location
Date: Tue, 28 Dec 2010 12:03:46 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <30547016.post@talk.nabble.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87pqsmrg7z.fsf@puma.rapttech.com.au>
Here's where I'm at now:
By examining the load-path variable, I was able to determine that the
appropriate subdirectories were added to my load-path (e.g. ess-5.12), but I
didn't take account of the fact that all the lisp files were in a further
sub-directory of that. This also explains why the list-load-path-shadows
command was not picking up a conflict between my ess files and those on the
shared location.
I updated my .emacs file with: (add-to-list 'load-path
"~/elisp/ess-5.12/lisp") and now when I do list-load-path-shadows I get a
ton of messages about my ess files hiding the ones in the shared location.
Unfortunately, the ess in the shared location still gets loaded over mine,
though. I think this could be because there is a site-start.el file that
calls (require 'ess-site), and since that file gets read before my .emacs
file adds new locations to load-path, that could explain the problem.
Still, I'm not sure how to fix it.
I am aware of the --no-site-file argument that can be used when invoking
emacs, but I was hoping I could find a solution that wouldn't compromise all
the other things done by site-start.el.
Thanks in advance!
