I am not completely sure, but is strange that I could not reproduce it in my frequently updated sid box. I am using pristine emacsen-common, so if it were due to emacsen-comon I guess I should have reproduced it. I have even manually tried # /usr/lib/emacsen-common/emacs-remove xemacs21 # /usr/lib/emacsen-common/emacs-install xemacs21 with no problem. Looking at #619367, happening with ocaml installation is what makes me think about the possibility that the fact that this bug happens with emacsen-common is just accidental. As a blind guess I think about two other possibilities, a buggy xemacs21 version that has problems upgrading to a way more recent version or a buggy emacsen add-on package that is messing up with paths and definitions. Or a local problem.

It looks an > update to emacsen-common would be in order, right? Agreed. Even if only to look what happens, although I do not expect this bug to suddenly dissapear just because of that, the ocaml bug seems to happen in a "quiet" install.
