Gentlefolk:
It sounds as if this effort includes a significant
attempt to reinvigorate the rapidly-cooling ``you can get
sued for using Linux'' FUD.

every so
often. At a minimum, installing emacs-snapshot-common will
get you the manual The Debian Way. Its direct dependencies
are
o dpkg (>=1.9.0) and
o emacsen-common (>=1.4.10)
If your installation is OK with these (and whatever they
drag in) ``apt-get install emacs-snapshot-common'
just
kicking them off anytime, while I continue to work. Expecting too much
from the mechanism: it doesn't actually use artificial intelligence
