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:

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?
