 Hello,
 
 I'm tring to install Emacs on Debian 4.0r4. Here's what apt-get gives me:
 
 ff9:/home/nishita# apt-get install emacs
 Reading package lists... Done

 Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
 requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
 distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
 or been moved out of Incoming.
 
 Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
 the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
 that package should be filed.
 The following information may help to resolve the situation:
 
 The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   emacs: Depends: emacs21 or
   emacs21-nox but it is not going to be installed
 E: Broken packages
 
 
 Synaptic takes me through a chain which ends at: emacsen-common
 I can't find this package anywhere.
 
 Can anyone help?
 
 Thanks,
 Nishita
 

Try installing emacs22-gtk.

Best regards,

 Hi, I am wondering where can I find the better documentation about debian-cd. 
 I am trying to make my own custom debian-cd. If you have any other tool for 
 or any idea about the process of building custom debian-cd, it will be really 
 appreciated.
 
 So, my goals here are to include a lot of usefull package on one dvd from the 
 debian distribution and also further to make some modifications on the 
 installation process of my custom cd.

I agree.

 So I suspect that what I really need to do is download the dibbler  
 source package and recompile it on Etch.
 
 Can anybody tell me how to do that?  RTFM is easy if you know what  
 parts to read, so if you can point me to the right parts of the FM,  
 that will be great!
 

You should install autotools-dev for first.
Get the source then:
./configure
make

If it compiles it's a good thing and we could work on debianizating it,
but I still won't do make install to install it into your system.
Though I don't think developers would put such blocker dependencies that don't 
exist.

Maxima is already packaged. If you have the debian sources go ahead.
Instead check out apt-get source maxima.

Bye.
