I am trying to install ess-18.10.2 from the tarball into .emac.d on a compute server for which I am not root. After extracting the tarball into ~/.emacs.d/ess-18.10.2, entering that directory and executing make (all per the instructions in the ESS manual), I am getting $> make cd lisp; make all make[1]: Entering directory `/scicomp/home-pure/wqh4/.emacs.d/ess-18.10.2/lisp' emacs -batch -no-site-file -no-init-file --directory . -f batch-byte-compile julia-mode.el Opening directory: Permission denied, /apps/x86_64/emacs/27.1/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess make[1]: *** [julia-mode.elc] Error 255 make[1]: Leaving directory `/scicomp/home-pure/wqh4/.emacs.d/ess-18.10.2/lisp' make: *** [all] Error 2 There is no .configure file. How doe one avoid the apparent need to write to /apps/x86_64/emacs/27.1/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess in order to install ess in .emacs.d? Note: I tried installation from MELPA first, but the version of ess there insists on Emacs 25.1, and my available options are 26.1 or 27.1. Thanks in advance for any tips. -- Steve Gutreuter ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/ess-help
