Hi,
I'm currently doing piuparts upgrade tests lenny -> squeeze -> wheezy to
check whether long grown systems may successfully update to wheezy.
Several emacs addons (or however you may call them, I'm not an emacs
user) fail to install if the old emacs22 package from lenny is still
installed. This seems to cause no harm in squeeze, but is no longer
compatible with the updated addons to be installed in wheezy. There is
currently nothing conflicting with emacs22 in squeeze or wheezy, so apt
keeps the old packages installed.
I would suggest to add a
Breaks: emacs22
or
Conflicts: emacs22
to some central emacs package in wheezy. That should be easier than to
identify all addons that may break (or might break only in some
arbitrary combination with other addons).
I can to upgrade tests to check whether this actually works before
something is uploaded (and unblocked).
