Hi, emacs20 seems to be broken in unstable . It can't be purged . Gives the error :
Removing emacs20 ... emacs-remove emacs20 remove/ada-mode: Purging byte-compiled files for flavour emacs20 rmdir: `/usr/share/emacs20/site-lisp/ada-mode': No such file or directory remove/liece: Handling removal of emacsen flavor emacs20 ... done. remove/flim: Handling removal of emacsen flavor emacs20 ... done. remove/cmail: purging byte-compiled files for emacs20 remove/bitmap-mule: Handling removal of emacsen flavor emacs20 ... done. remove/apel: Handling removal of emacsen flavor emacs20 ... done. remove/auctex: Removing for emacs20... rmdir: `/usr/share/emacs20/site-lisp/auctex//style': No such file or directory emacs-remove: /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/remove/auctex emacs20 emacs19 xemacs21 failed at /usr/lib/emacsen-common/emacs-remove line 28. dpkg: error processing emacs20 (--purge): subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 29 emacs-install emacs20 dpkg: error while cleaning up: subprocess post-installation script killed by signal (Interrupt) Errors were encountered while processing: emacs20 Even dpkg --force-all --purge does not work. Any idea how this could be forced as it interferes with the setup of other programs. b thomas
