On mac, you can have exuberant-ctags or ctags embedded into emacs and=20
xemacs, so for me the binary should be exuberant ctags, as I don't see=20=

a way to use the ctags embedded into xemacs or emacs. The alternative=20
allows to list all packages which uses ctags and defines a priority.=20
Then a symlink is created to the package which has the higher priority.=20=

The user can change it as he wants.

Example:
  update-alternatives --display ctags
ctags - status is manual.
  link currently points to /sw/bin/ctags-exuberant
/sw/bin/ctags.xemacs - priority 60
  slave ctags.1: /sw/share/man/man1/ctags.1.xemacs
/sw/bin/ctags.emacs21 - priority 40
  slave ctags.1: /sw/share/man/man1/ctags.1.emacs21
/sw/bin/ctags-exuberant - priority 70
  slave ctags.1: /sw/share/man/man1/ctags.1-exuberant
Current `best' version is /sw/bin/ctags-exuberant.

You can maybe search toutdoux and dtags, dtags is an interface for=20
using ctags for xsltproc within toutdoux. It can give you hints.

I've patched the line in configure this way, then it works:

dnl This plugin needs the ctags program
dnl AC_CHECK_PROG([CTAGS], [ctags], [no-ctags])

dnl Exuberant ctags
AC_MSG_CHECKING(for Exuberant Ctags)
if ctags-exuberant --version > /dev/null 2>&1; then
	AC_MSG_RESULT(yes)=09
	ctags=3Dyes
else
	AC_MSG_ERROR(ctags-exuberant software not found)
	ctags=3Dno
