This is strange, because /Users/artemio/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/ etc/
is writable by me (artemio). The installation steps I followed were
the following: ...
This sounds more like ./mkinstalldirs could not be executed. Take a
look at its first line: do you have a shell with the given path name?
Is its executable bit set?
After reviewing the make install output, I agree with you that the
problem is ./mkinstalldirs, since no directory under ~/.xemacs/ xemacs-
packages/lisp/auctex/ get installed. The shell in the first line of ./
mkinstalldirs is /bin/sh, which I of course can run:
[tillina:~] artemio% l /bin/sh -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 581636 Mar 21 00:39 /bin/sh
Uh, I meant "is the executable bit of ./mkinstalldirs set"? That should have happened when unpacking.
David,
After downloading auctex from CVS from scratch, I have been able to eliminate all of the ./mkinstalldirs "permission denied" errors. However, "make install" still fails:

If I open a tex file in xemacs, auctex fails to load with the enclosed backtrace. Any idea what may be going on (it's driving me nuts)?
Thanks a lot,
