Package: dh-elpa
Version: 2.0.3
Hi,
i run some tests on debian testing. I installed the recently build
pspp 1.2.0-5 package which uses dh-elpa to install pspp-mode.el
for emacs. In the current emacs version in testing 1:26.3+1-2
I cannot install the package. When I run
M-x package-list-packages
I see:
...
zones 2019.7.13 available Zones of text - like multiple
regions
ztree 1.0.5 available Text mode directory tree
poker 0.2 installed Texas hold 'em poker
psgml 1.3.4 installed SGML-editing mode with parsing
support
dh-elpa 2.0.4 external package.el style packages for
Debian
pspp-mode 1.0 external Major mode for editing PSPP files
ada-mode 4.0 built-in major-mode for editing Ada sources
...
There are only the dh-elpa and the pspp-mode package listed as „external“. When
I type „i“ to install pspp-mode, then this does not work. This works for the
„available“ packages. So listing works, the info is shown but I cannot use the
package. It seems that nobody else uses dh-elpa right?

I can't see anything here that looks like a bug in dh-elpa. I'm
closing the bug for now. Of course you can re-open it later if you
discover something new.

Your binary package contains two copies of pspp-mode.el; one in the old
place that you fine with locate-libary. This is because of
debian/pspp.install:pspp-mode.el usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/pspp

dh_elpa relies on the elisp providing appropriate autoload
statements. "Debian-specific Lisp customizations" in dh_elpa(1)
discusses how these can be added.
