Ok I have the following in my *Messages*
Loading 50xtla (source)...
Error while loading 50xtla

Evaluating 50xtla results in 
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable flavor)
  (symbol-name flavor)
  (concat "/usr/share/" (symbol-name flavor) "/site-lisp/xtla")
  (let ((package-dir ...)) (when (file-directory-p package-dir) (setq load-path 
...)))
  eval-buffer()
* call-interactively(eval-buffer)
  execute-extended-command(nil)
  call-interactively(execute-extended-command)

Is GNU Emacs 21.3.1 the wrong version for this?

Hmm they have not been created and I do not get any errors
when installing it by "apt-get install xtla" or running
dpkg-reconfigure!

Hmm, how can I get the post-install script?
