Package: dictionaries-common Version: 1.20.5 Severity: serious Justification: upgrade failure
I attempted to upgrade my system to dictionaries-common 1.20.5 but the preinst failed because I do not have emacsen-common installed. Either emacsen-common needs to be a pre-dependency or the preinst should check for emacs-package-install before using it, probably the latter is best.
