If you installed emacs20 and apel, pces-20.elc should be located

On my system the file is here:

/usr/share/emacs/20.7/site-lisp/apel/pces-20.elc

This is the same file, because emacs20 has symlink `/usr/share/emacs20/site-lisp -> ../emacs/20.7/site-lisp'.

BTW, I haven't yet understood why your emacs20 didn't
automatically add apel/*.elc path to load-path.

emacs20 has subdirs.el in `/usr/share/emacs/20.7/site-lisp'. So
I think that subdirectories of `/usr/share/emacs/20.7/site-lisp/'
be automatically added to load-path, even if `-q -no-site-file'
options are used.

Could anyone tell me why loading apel/pces-20.elc failed on
Laurent's system when `emacs20 -q -no-site-file'?

Thanks,

Perhaps this was fixed in a release after the one you have installed
(which appears to be 1.14.6+0.20040).

Can you try with a more recent version of the package and tell me if
you still see the bug?

Yes:

Here are the pces-20 elisp files installed on this system:

$ dlocate pces-20
xemacs21-basesupport: /usr/share/xemacs21/xemacs-packages/lisp/apel/pces-20.elc apel: /usr/share/apel/pces-20.el
xemacs21-basesupport-el: /usr/share/xemacs21/xemacs-packages/lisp/apel/pces-20.el.gz

and package versions:

ii xemacs21-basesuppor 2004.05.17-1 Editor and kitchen sink -- compiled elisp support file
ii apel 10.6+0.20040418-1 a portable Emacs library


But since emacs20 has been removed from Debian this bug can not be
considered as "grave". However, if gnus-bonus-el does not work with
emacs20, it should perhaps have a conflict in its dependencies.

If you installed emacs20 and apel, pces-20.elc should be located
in `/usr/share/emacs20/site-lisp/apel/pces-20.elc'.

I guess the attached patch fixes this bug.

I wonder what apel provides that gnus-filterhist.el needs. The package
doesn't depend on apel and works when apel isn't installed, right?

I need to understand why the loading of pces-20.el is attempted.
Everything works here when I byte-compile gnus-filterhist.el.

This works whether the apel package is installed or not. See also:

The emacs20 byte-compilation log file has nothing special to report.
