Me, too.

Of course, I have a Debian package that builds from CVS source every
night...  Still, when CVS doesn't build out-of-the-box, the package
doesn't update.

When I install something for emacs, and it isn't debian-ized, yet, I
put it in my ~/.elisp directory (which is at the front of my
load-path).

Alternatively, you can use the debian package that I created.  Add the
following to your /etc/apt/sources.list:

    deb http://mah.everybody.org/debian/ unstable .

After updating, you should be able to install "xml-el".  

If this is useful, then I'll have it build nightly.

Mark.
