Attempting to install sepia gets an error

In toplevel form:
sepia-w3m.el:37:13:Error: Emacs-w3m of this version does not support Emacs 23;

dpkg: error processing sepia (--configure):

where I hoped that if sepia does plenty that doesn't depend on w3m then
it would install but the w3m parts be omitted or be non-functional in
emacs23 (or unless a new-enough w3m-el).

Or alternately if a new enough w3m-el really is a hard dependency then I
would hope the necessary version was expressed in the control file, not
by a failure during the postinst.
