OK. But we fight with another problem. When .sl files become byte
compiled while package building, jed is invoked for this task. But it
can't load jed.conf, because the load path of jed doesn't contain the
paths needed by jed.conf.

This is the part of debians build script with the error message:
#v+
# compile .sl; move compileable .sl to jed-sl.deb
