** Packages Hierarchy
+*** System-wide Packages (late-packages)
+
The default location that SXEmacs searches for packages is
`$prefix/share/sxemacs/'. The same as for the user-init-file, a
symlink is all you need to get up and running.
- $ ln -s /usr/local/lib/xemacs /usr/local/share/sxemacs RET
+ $ ln -svfn /usr/local/lib/xemacs /usr/local/share/sxemacs
+
+*** User Packages in ${HOME} (early-packages)
+
+For packages that you keep in your ${HOME}, the preferred location is:
+${XDG_DATA_HOME}/sxemacs. This is normally ${HOME}/.local/share/sxemacs,
+and SXEmacs will use that if ${XDG_DATA_HOME} is not set.
+
+These packages may also be located in ~/.sxemacs if that is where you
+have your user-init-directory set to.

you have taglib installed. Use the included ffi-taglib.el.
+*** XCreateIC fails at startup
+
+SXEmacs sometimes fails to create the input context with XCreateIC on
+non-C languages. SXEmacs will include the values of the LANG and
+XMODIFIERS environment variables which influence the behavior of
+XCreateIC. Failures have been observed with XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
