XSteve's stow page
I use gnu stow to install some packages from soure on my linux systems.I installed the emacs developer version via stow on my ubuntu system
Install stow (only needed, if its not already available on your system)sudo apt-get install stow
Stow should store the local tree at ~/prg
mkdir -p ~/prg/stow Configure, build and install emacs in /home/stefan/prg/stow/emacscd ~/work/tla/emacs ./configure --prefix=/home/stefan/prg/stow/emacs make bootstrap make install Create the links in the ~/prg subdirectories.
You should add ~/prg/bin to the PATH environment variable to make emacs visible for your shell.cd ~/prg/stow stow emacs
