+;; The xournal package follows the Debian/GNU Linux 'emacsen' policy and
+;; byte-compiles its elisp files for each 'emacs flavor' (emacs19,
+;; xemacs19, emacs20, xemacs20...). The compiled code is then
+;; installed in a subdirectory of the respective site-lisp directory.
+;; We have to add this to the load-path:
+(let ((package-dir (concat "/usr/share/"
+ (symbol-name flavor)
+ "/site-lisp/xournal")))
+ (when (file-directory-p package-dir)
+ (setq load-path (cons package-dir load-path))))
