How do you come to the conclusion that there is an incompatibility
between auctex and emacs21, when on your system dselect wants to remove
*both*?  What's the list of "further packages" that are going to be
updated?

As I already told you, this is perfectly okay.  It's only a warning, it
says that half of the dependencies in that alternative can be satisfied
(texlive-latex-base is only available in experimental at the moment).

That might well be true, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with
auctex. 

Please send us the full list of packages to be updated, and the output
of 

dpkg -l "emacs*" | grep ^ii

Furthermore, you could try "apt-get install emacs21", does that help?
If not, what's the output?
