Package: emacs22 Version: 22.2+2-5 Severity: important Not sure if the bug is in the emacs22 package or in dpkg...
I upgraded two machines from etch (+some lenny/sid) to lenny today; as part of this upgrade, I asked for purging emacs21 and installing emacs22. Now, on both machines, I have: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# emacs bash: emacs: command not found [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# ls -l /usr/bin/emacs lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 mar 31 2005 /usr/bin/emacs -> /etc/alternatives/emacs [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# ls -l /etc/alternatives/emacs lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 déc 7 13:23 /etc/alternatives/emacs -> /usr/bin/emacs21 While a "update-alternatives --auto emacs" solves the situation, alternatives are there for that kind of thing to be automatic...

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# update-alternatives --auto emacs [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# update-alternatives --display emacs emacs - status is auto. link currently points to /usr/bin/emacs22-x /usr/bin/emacs22-x - priority 25 slave emacs.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/emacs.1emacs22.gz Current `best' version is /usr/bin/emacs22-x. I'm fairly sure I did not myself set the status to manual before. I would have had any reason to do that, having only one emacs installed. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (300, 'testing'), (200, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=fr_LU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_LU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages emacs22 depends on: ii emacs22-bin-common 22.2+2-5 The GNU Emacs editor's shared, arc ii libasound2 1.0.16-2 ALSA library ii libc6 2.7-16 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgif4 4.1.6-6 library for GIF images (library) ii libice6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libncurses5 5.6+20080830-2 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpng12-0 1.2.27-2 PNG library - runtime ii libsm6 2:1.0.3-2 X11 Session Management library ii libtiff4 3.8.2-11 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libx11-6 2:1.1.5-2 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxmu6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxpm4 1:3.5.7-1 X11 pixmap library ii libxt6 1:1.0.5-3 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii xaw3dg 1.5+E-17 Xaw3d widget set ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 compression library - runtime emacs22 recommends no packages.
