install/ess: Handling install for emacsen flavor emacs21
ERROR: install script from ess package failed
dpkg: error processing package ess (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
The reason for an error is a file:
$ cat /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/ess
if [ ${FLAVOR} = emacs ]; then exit 0; fi
if [ ${FLAVOR} = xemacs21 ]; then exit 0; fi
if [ ${FLAVOR} = emacs22 ]; then exit 0; fi
if [ ${FLAVOR} = emacs23 ]; then exit 0; fi
It's better to have:
case ${FLAVOR} in xemacs*|emacs|emacs2[1-3]) exit 0;; esac
instead of those lines.

As you probably know that is an upstream decision. The old ones are no
longer supported.
As such, this is not a bug but an upstream design issue. Talk to them.
(And as for emacs21: I don't think we had a package for that in, what, a
decade?)

Sure. You could have emailed too. But thanks for the suggestion -- committed
to the ESS git now.
