Regarding the emacs23 | emacs24 dependency I thought emacs24 would enter
testing. Obviously it did not make it in time. And the patch I submitted
was for acl2, not gcl. Nevertheless, why build-depend on a non-existing
package emacsen with emacs23 | emacsen? Additionally, it looks like
emacs24 is not the default for unstable, why not? It should be for
testing yes, but unstable?
