Bug#905235: emacs-goodies-el failed to install due to old broken symlinks

[Nicholas D Steeves]

stretch2buster: installed emacs-nox (uses emacs24-nox)
                installed emacs-goodies-el
                modified /etc/apt/sources.list and ran dist-upgrade
                  - to buster
                dist-upgrade succeeded
                emacs-goodies-el 36.3+nmu1 to 40.0 succeeded
                  - installed 40.0 with dpkg on top of buster's 39.9

Automated piuparts are also good:

I'll keep an eye on the piuparts page.

Were you using aptitude when this bug was triggered?

Cheers,
Nicholas
