Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xemacs21
Hello. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 netbook remix. I'm not a particularly experienced programmer or linux user at all but I'm trying very hard to learn the skills and gain that experience. Unfortunately I'm having trouble configuring the necessary tools. I was installing tools for OCaml, which seemed to go fine, but additional tools for emacs support were suggested and did not all install successfully. I'm not sure how to accurately summarize the errors so I'll just paste what seems to be the most relevant output. Please excuse me if it's a waste of space.
