David, you keep complaining about the way Emacs is packaged in Debian.
We got that. But you never came up with solutions that would fullfil both
you and the practical benefits we've tried to offer our users through

Now, how about you describe straight how you'd see it to be implemented
and we begin constructive discussions instead, please? Thanks.
