Package: xtla
Version: 1.2.1-1
Severity: important
Hi,
xtla does not follow emacs policy, and that makes it very hard
to cuild a local version or do NMU's. It requires _every_ _version_ of
emacsen to be installed before the package can be built, and ships all
the .elc files for all variants (bloating the package), instead of the
common practice of compiling on the target machine.
This, of course, makes it very hard to add/remove new emacsen
variants; since it is no longer a simple matter of editing a case
statement in ./debian//emacsen.install/remove.
