I was aware that gNewSense was derived from Ubuntu, but I suppose I
had not given much thought to how Ubuntu themselves handle these
things.  Do they just redistribute these things straight from Debian?
I suppose I simply assumed that they would include the documentation
for Emacs, either by restoring it to the Debian package or by
repackaging it entirely.  It makes me a bit curious thinking about it.
