Hello Gabriele,
emacs24 has 50% more dependencies than emacs23, thus this is not very
attractive.

Personnaly I would rather convert the two remaining .org files to SGML
so we do not need to build-depend on emacs at all.
But other policy maintainer probably disagree.

Maybe we could use emacs24-nox|emacs24 instead ?

Cheers,
