Package: org-mode Version: 6.31a-2 Severity: wishlist Currently, org-mode depends on an OR-ed list of emacs and xemacs. Such a list is not satisfiable by installing emacs-snapshot. The net result is that emacs-snapshot users are forced to install packages like emacs23 (about 80 MBs, including deps) only because they need org-mode.
I surely understand that emacs-snapshot is not an official package and you owe nothing to it :-) Still, it would be nice if a solution which makes everybody happy can be found, also considering that emacs-snapshot, AFAIK, has quite a lot of users. At first, I thought depending on "emacsen" instead would solve the issue, but then I noticed that xemacs*-bin do not provide it (why?). Would it be sensible to have a dependency like "emacsen | xemacs*-bin " ? Many thanks in advance, Cheers.
