Package: vm
Version: 7.19-7
Severity: wishlist

Since vm-bonus-el depends on vm, installing both makes vm byte-compile
its files twice:

Setting up vm (7.19-7) ...
install/vm: Ignoring emacsen flavor emacs.
install/vm: Byte-compiling for emacs-snapshot... done.
install/vm: Byte-compiling for emacs20... done.
install/vm: Byte-compiling for emacs21... done.
install/vm: Byte-compiling for xemacs21... done.

Setting up vm-bonus-el (26.3-1) ...
install/vm: Ignoring emacsen flavor emacs.
install/vm: Byte-compiling for emacs-snapshot... done.
install/vm: Byte-compiling for emacs20... done.
install/vm: Byte-compiling for emacs21... done.
install/vm: Byte-compiling for xemacs21... done.
[...]

Perhaps it could check if already done if skip it if that is the case?

I use a snipnet like below in the emacs-install file, where ${STAMPFILE}
is the last .elc file that gets byte-compiled:

ELCDIR=/usr/share/${FLAVOR}/site-lisp/${PACKAGE}
if test -e "${ELCDIR}/${STAMPFILE}"; then
    echo "${PACKAGE} files already compiled in ${ELCDIR}."
    rm -f ${LOG}
    exit
fi
