* if you click on pspp-mode I think you'll find
Status: External in
‘/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/elpa-src/pspp-mode-1.0/pspp-mode.el'
* "Status: External" means it has been installed.
* What does M-x locate-library psp-mode return?

Haven't you already installed it with 'apt install pspp'?

Plenty of people use dh-elpa :-) At this point it's unclear what you're
reporting. Maybe it's one of these?:
1. pspp regression after converting to dh-elpa
* normal bug, against in pspp package
2. request to install Debian packages from the 'package-list-packages'
interface.
* wishlist bug in src:emacs (in a desktop-general sense) to add
Debian package management to packages.el
3. request for information about how to install elpa-foo packages using
apt from inside emacs. Lev, I seem to remember that you maintain one
or two packages that can do this.
4. something else
Cheers,
Nicholas
