Package: devscripts-el
Version: 29.3-1
Severity: important

Hi,

with the latest emacs-goodies-el upload, devscripts-el doesn't depend
anymore on elserv (bug #475791 [1]) and thus I installed it, however:

This because mcharset.el (provided by apel) is not installed, since
devscripts-el doesn't depend on apel (thus Severity: important).
Installing the latter fixes the bug.

Thx, bye,
