Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

Hi ftp-masters,

please remove the hurd-i386 binaries for emacs21.

The current .debs are both uninstallable[1] and used to segfault
randomly for any non-trivial operation back when they were still
installable.  The source FTBFS[2] due to segfaults when running the built
binary during the process as well.

Nobody was able to track down this breakage, and people want to install
emacs, so they go for emacs21 and see its broken.  As emacs-snapshot
works fine, emacs21 should be removed so people try -snapshot, rather.


thanks,

Michael
