Package: emacs21
Version: 21.4a-1
Severity: serious
Hold on, this is a multistep bugreport which covers a couple of issues
and *might* finally boil down to xaw3dg-dev and/or libxaw.
According to http://buildd.debian.org/build.php?arch=&pkg=emacs21,
building of emacs after the last NMU failed on most architectures. I'm
confused, though, because the NMU was in January according to the
changelog, and makes the package is uninstallable on most architectures.
This is because emacs21-bin-common depends on
emacs21-common=${Source-Version}, and emacs21-common has now the NMU
version number. But this should have shown up much earlier, it's like
as if the NMU was not in fact in the archive the last months.
As to the actual failure, it doesn't look as if it should be related to
the NMU patch, and this is some other strange thing. On i386, it fails
with
i486-linux-gnu-gcc -c -DUSE_LUCID -Demacs -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DUSE_LUCID -I.

-DPURESIZE=5000000 -I../src /build/buildd/emacs21-21.4a/lwlib/lwlib.c
/build/buildd/emacs21-21.4a/lwlib/lwlib.c:52:27: error: X11/Xaw/Paned.h: No
such file or directory
make[5]: *** [lwlib.o] Error 1
Now Paned.h is in libxaw8-dev, which is installed as an indirect
build-dependency. Maybe this has to do with the XOrg transition, the
headers have changed there location:
usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xaw/Paned.h libdevel/libxaw8-dev
usr/include/X11/Xaw/Paned.h x11/libxaw-headers
And maybe the underlying bug is that xaw3dg-dev still depends on
"libxaw8-dev | libxaw7-dev | libxaw6-dev" but should have dropped
libxaw8-dev?
Regards, Frank

Which, as documented in the merged bugs, was not possible because one of
emacs21's build-dependencies was broken.
It's been fixed now in xaw3dg-dev 1.5+E-14, so fixed emacs21 packages should
begin dripping into incoming.debian.org in a couple of hours.
Thanks,
