Hello.

I've several site-lisp directories on my system - I don't quite know
which Emacs installation created which but these are what I've found:

/sw/etc/lisp/emacs/20.7/site-lisp
/sw/etc/lisp/emacs/21.2/site-lisp
/sw/etc/lisp/emacs/21.3.50/site-lisp
/sw/etc/lisp/emacs/21.3/site-lisp
/sw/etc/lisp/emacs/site-lisp
/sw/share/emacs/21.3.50/site-lisp
/sw/share/emacs/site-lisp
/sw/share/emacs21/site-lisp
/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp
/usr/share/emacs/21.2/site-lisp
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp

What made me a bit confused was that not all are loaded by load-path;

load-path =>
/sw/share/emacs/21.3.50/site-lisp
/sw/share/emacs/site-lisp
/sw/share/emacs21/site-lisp/
/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp

I have two questions:

1. I think I can clean out a few of the directories, but which ones
   are used by fink's Emacs? I can deduce that from the load-path but
   I'm looking for the policy here.

2. Which one should I add my own code in? I've seen some "subdirs.el"
   and I can't quite figure out how these are used. When are they
   loaded and by whom? I would like to add subdirectories in
   /foo/site-lisp (one of the dirs that is the answer to number 1
   above) but will they automatically be added to the load-path or do
   I have to add code in my .emacs to add them?

3. How much is the Emacs installation (i.e. where to look for files
   etc.) is modified by the fink folks and how much by Debian?
