Bug#51788: dpkg-dev prevents emacsen-common from install
Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.6.1
The dpkg-dev package installs a file
/usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/emacsen-common-install
which tries to compile
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dpkg-dev/debian-changelog-mode.el
during the install process of emacsen-common.
The latter file is, however, not present. This prevents emacs
from installing unless the dpkg-dev packages is first removed.
All other packages using /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/
install a file named after the package. dpkg-dev seems to do
this very differently...
I've encountered this problem while doing a fresh install of potato.
