Several of the site-gentoo files installed in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp use commands of the following form to add their directory to Emacs's load-path: (setq load-path (cons "@SITELISP@" load-path)) This doesn't take existing entries into account and leads to duplications. (add-to-list 'load-path "@SITELISP@") should be used instead. It is probably not worthwhile to update all packages because of this (several of the packages are marked stable), but something to keep in mind if a new revision is released for some other reason. The list of 58 packages and the script to generate the list will be attached. (Herds are: "emacs"+"java" for aspectj4emacs and jde, "emacs"+"ml" for ocaml-mode, "emacs"+"net-mail" (maintainer: usata) for wanderlust and wanderlust-cvs, "sci-mathematics" for maxima, "emacs" for all others.)

That won't work, as I will forget it everytime. Everything starting wit "A" and "B" corrected. sci-mathematics. Your site file needs some more work. Please remove the sed construct in the ebuild to parse it and use the @SITELISP@ as mentioned in comment #0. elisp-common.eclass will take care of it then.
Dear emacs team, Just if it doesn't cause you guys too much work I would be very grateful if you could fix the site files for the sci-mathematics team (aka me). I lack any experience with emacs and don't even have it installed on any of my dev boxes. If it is too much work please let me know and I will certainly try fixing it myself. cheers, Markus

Next time we will see each other on Macaulay2 stabilisation.
All fixed...that was boring. :) Thanks.
Thanks a lot for your help, Christian! It is much appreciated. Regarding Macaulay - I can't wait! Maybe I should be myself some more RAM before that;) cheers, Markus
