Excellent. Thanks for confirming. The next script (from our package) starts
with
FLAVOR=$1
PACKAGE=ess
# edd 03 Jan 2017 cf #850041
#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
case ${FLAVOR} in xemacs*|emacs|emacs2[1-3])
exit 0;;
esac
and that 'emacs' in the middle there way do us in. Can you try running the
script (as root) with the case line altered to
case ${FLAVOR} in xemacs*|emacs2[1-3])
