My load-path variable contains the correct load-path: "/Users/guivho/.emacs.d/elpa/slime-20141002.1224" This directory contains a slime-autoloads.el ending with a (provide 'slime-autoloads) My .emacs has a (require 'slime-autoloads) line but it complains that it does not find it, unless I explicitely precede this require line with: (add-to-list 'load-path (concat emacsd-dir "elpa/slime-20141002.1224")) which adds a second "/Users/guivho/.emacs.d/elpa/slime-20141002.1224" to my load-path. Why does it only work with this additional entry in the load-path list? Please advise, Guido -- One man's theology is another man's belly laugh.
