Package: emms
Version: 1.0-4
Severity: normal

When installing emms, if you still have emacs20 installed, it fails to
complete the dpkg --configure phase, and thus fails to install:

I don't have a particularly interesting emacs setup, I've done no
modifications/customizations of my .emacs file. However, I did have
various versions installed on my machine:

emacs-wiki                                      install
emacs20                                         install
emacs21-bin-common                              install
emacs21-common                                  install
emacs21-el                                      install
emacs21-nox                                     install
emacsen-common                                  install
xemacs21                                        install
xemacs21-basesupport                            install
xemacs21-bin                                    install
xemacs21-mule                                   install
xemacs21-mulesupport                            install
xemacs21-support                                install

I removed emacs20 and xemacs21 (and all its supporting packages) and
then emms seemed to install properly. 

Since it is not common for people to have old versions of emacs still
installed (I was surprised actually that my installation of emacs21
didn't remove emacs20, but there may be reasons for that), perhaps a
versioned Depends is called for with emms?
