tbh, emacs-extra doesn't seem to be a very quality package, and I'd even
suggest it to be merged into other already existing packages, so that it
can be safely removed from the archive.

You received this bug
after reading the emacs-extra source code, I come to the conclusion that
this is an absolutely correct behavior. The purpose of emacs-extra seems
to provide some assistance for configuring emacs by using debconf. Try
'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow emacs-extra' to get questions presented
which seems
can you please find out (e.g. with grep) what in /etc/emacs/site-
start.d/ is providing these bad defaults?
With that information we can move this bug to the correct package.

Yeah... been looking, but it doesn't seem to be doing bad things in any
obvious way.
I'll keep digging.

In the screenshot you see there is no menu (File, Edit, etc...) nor
menu bar (icons that represent open file, save file, etc).
The menu does appear very briefly while Emacs is booting up.

It seems somewhere something in /etc/emacs/site-start.d/ is now hiding
the menu bar, scroll bar and tool bar.
I had to set these variables in my .emacs to get these things back.
'(menu-bar-mode t)
'(scroll-bar-mode (quote left))
'(speedbar-frame-parameters (quote ((minibuffer) (width . 20)

menu.
Can you please attach a (perhaps commented) screenshot of the problem?
