debian-xemacs-version: Symbols' value as variable is void



Sorry if I turn again to this newsgroup for help but I can find the
solution to this nasty error:

When I start up xemacs I get this message:

(1) (initialization/error) An error has occurred while loading
/home/oswald/.xemacs/init.el: 

Symbol's value as variable is void: debian-xemacs-version

To ensure normal operation, you should investigate the cause of the error
in your initialization file and remove it.  Use the `-debug-init' option
to XEmacs to view a complete error backtrace.
----

Now of course I don't have anything about debian-xemacs-version in init.el
except for:

(defvar running-xemacs (string-match "XEmacs\\|Lucid" emacs-version))

after disabling it, Xemacs still gives me the same error.

This version of Xemacs was downloaded automatically during the upgrade
from Progeny to Woody, I did not compile it myself.
Also I can't debug the error as some package seems to be missing...

maybe I should compile it myself, but unfortunately there are quite a
few other problems that needs to be solved first, so I would
appreciate if someone could tell me how to fix this problem.

Thanks :-)

The box said Windows, NT or better, so I installed Linux :-)
