I have setup my Emacs(v 23.3) with CEDET 1.1 using info found in http://cedet.sourceforge.net/ and the article by Alex Ott (http://alexott.net/en/writings/emacs-devenv/EmacsCedet.html)
I've got most of the kinks worked out to my linking with respect to my init.el file.
Now for the problem. I build TAGS myself, so there is a TAGS file in the root of my project. However semantic doesn't seem to want to use that file and barfs with the following errors:
Source file `/users/lshvarts/.emacs.d/cedet-1.1/semantic/ctags/semantic-ectag-util.el' newer than byte-compiled file
Exuberent CTags not found. Found ctags that comes with Emacs
semantic-ectag-test-version: Exuberent CTags not found. Use M-x semantic-ectag-version RET
Exuberent CTags not found. Use M-x semantic-ectag-version RET

Etags that I have might not be the newest version, but I am puzzled why it plainly refuses to work with it.

Any help/insight is appreciated.
you need not the etags, but Exuberent CTags! You can install it from your linux/mac repository (usually it has name ectags, or exuberant-ctags on Debian), or from it's site.
