Package: emacs21
Severity: minor

Well, reportbug asked me which package it related to and I tried
saying it was general: <quote>

Enter a package: 7
Are you sure this bug doesn't apply to a specific package? [y|N|q|?]? 

</quote> but it *does* apply to a specific package, it's just that
that package (emacs21) isn't the one with the bug !

Earlier today I decided to uninstall emacs21, but doing so broke:

python-mode
records-gnuemacs
w3-el-e21
w3-url-e21
xslide

While I can believe the w3-*-e21 packages might really depend on
emacs21, I'm fairly sure the others don't; however, all of these
packages *say* they depend on emacs21, not emacs - possibly because
they depend on emacs > 20.  There may be others that likewise
misdescribe themselves (I just don't have them installed).  They
should be fixed to reference emacs, optionally with a version check.
