I had somewhat they the same error. I stopped the installation and installed
theese libs by hand and then it worked.

Will you file the bug? (I got the same error over and over).

Somewhere along from slink to potatto the dir-structure for Emacs got changed
but the install-script does noet reflect this. I fixed the problem by moving
the missing files/dirs from the old place to the new place. I shure hope this
is fixed when potato is released - it's not vere easy to figure these things
out if one is a newbee.

Still, fewer errors ocurred than I had expected.
