I've attached the transcript. install fails because the clean step
fails because cus-load.el~ doesn't get deleted, so the rmdir
fails. rming it by hand and then re-running
/usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/vm succeeds. I note that
cus-load.el~ is there again, so presumably the next upgrade will fail
because it won't delete the ~ file, so the rmdir will fail, so...

I *think* a fix would be to add $ELCDIR/*.el~ to the rm rune on line
75 of /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/vm

I'm surprised that no-one else has had this issue, though, so maybe
there's something else going on here.

Regards,

Matthew
