Tell me if I understand what you're looking for. 1) check out or update Emacs trunk to $trunk and build it (should you need to install?) 2) check out or update the ELPA branch to $elpa 3) cd $elpa; make local-install EMACS=$trunk/src/emacs (this runs the trunk-built Emacs to `package-install' each ELPA package in $elpa/packages and then adds "$elpa/packages" to `package-directory-list' or maybe gives you a snippet to put in your .emacs). The trunk-built Emacs may need to have been installed system-wide. 4) Now all the ELPA packages should be available as if you had installed them through `package-install' into ~/.emacs.d because `package-directory-list' has been augmented 5) any package build and installation artifacts in $elpa need to be ignored by Bazaar Is this correct? Thanks Ted
