I hope so :-)

I insist on the fact that this kind of bug report *is* also helping us to make
xtla better and less buggy. Don't hesitate to report any other problem.

I thought this was synonymous ;-)

If you have problem with xtla, I suggest you "tla get" it from my archive. Then
you can "tla update" as we fix bugs.

> I run:
> ./configure --with-package-dir /usr/

You could also

mkdir /path/to/build/dir
cd !$
/path/to/configure --with-package-dir /usr
make
make install

both should work.

Can you post the output here ?

Emacs window shouldn't pop up (Emacs is run with the --batch option). This is a
bug :-(

Can you post the output of

emacs --no-site-file --batch --eval '(princ "hello, world\n")'

On your system? And tell us if this pops up an Emacs window?

Are you sure the command "emacs" is actually Emacs on your system, and not a
wrapper script with broken argument parsing? If so, use the option --with-emacs
of configure.

I suppose so.
