Package: emacs23
Version: 23.4+1-4
Severity: grave

Hi!

I started getting this error when using emacs after the latest wheezy
upgrade:

Warning: Lisp directory `/etc/emacs23' does not exist.

I mark this grave as it makes most emacs parts unusable... My .emacs is
not loaded, for example.

This is the upgrade:

2012-09-27 17:26:11 upgrade emacs23:i386 23.4+1-3 23.4+1-4

This is rather ... inconvenient.
