Right after starting reportbug:
Getting status for auctex...
Verifying package integrity...
There may be a problem with your installation of auctex;
the following files appear to be missing or changed:
debsums: can't open auctex file
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/auctex/auctex.el (No
such file or directory)
debsums: can't open auctex file
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/auctex/preview/auto.el (No such file or
directory)
A simpler way to reproduce the problem is just "debsums -s auctex",
which is what reportbug is apparently doing.

Yes, it prompts for a title and a severity, but doesn't start the
editor until it gets Ctrl-C.

Ah - I'd missed that.
>Do you actually have a problem with auctex's function?
No. I had started the bug report because I had noticed that
"/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/auctex/"
appeared before
"/usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/auctex/"
in load-list, so the source files seemed to be hiding the compiled
files. (A couple of other packages have that problem.) However, in
the process of filling out the report I discovered that
"/usr/share/emacs/21.4/site-lisp/auctex"
appears even earlier, so the compiled files are found after all.
