I think there were probably all kinds of reasons -- but I'm fairly certain that we did end up with a lot of dangling X.Y directories before that change. > Are the X.Y bits all unused by debian add-ons now?

I think it's possible that Emacs may have some "normal" behaviors that cause it to select the X.Y directory for some things -- but regardless, having the symlink means that we don't have to care about what current or future Emacs versions (or packages) do on that front. -- Rob Browning rlb @defaultvalue.org and @debian.org GPG as of 2011-07-10 E6A9 DA3C C9FD 1FF8 C676 D2C4 C0F0 39E9 ED1B 597A GPG as of 2002-11-03 14DD 432F AE39 534D B592 F9A0 25C8 D377 8C7E 73A4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
