Bug#910900: emacs-goodies-el: Upgrade to latest emacs-goodies-el fails in postinst: tsort complains about loops
Package: emacs-goodies-el
Version: 41.0
Severity: normal
Hi. I just upgraded my emacs bits, and the postinst now complains. I dug in a
bit, and the complainy invocation ( and following errors) look like this:

I'm not certain why it's still looking for all.el as this was removed. Any
debugging suggestions?
I'm a little concerned that since the recent reworking of emacs-goodies-el every
single upgrade has been troublesome. I think I only use the home-end part of it
and I used shell-command previously. And I use dpkg-dev-el, which isn't a part
of emacs-goodies-el, but there was some upgrade issue with it. Am I just doing
something wrong? Is my non-standard emacs-snapshot package breaking things? Do
yall need help?
