I tried to install xemacs 19.14, and dselect complains that it conflicts with FSF emacs. This is simply not true. The two emacsen keep their support files in different places--as a matter of fact, I have xemacs 19.14 installed, and both it and FSF emacs work fine. This is a bug in the package spec for xemacs 19.14.
Also, I have netnews support software installed, and use Gnus with FSF emacs to read news. But: every time I go into dselect, it tries to install nn. FSF emacs should "provide" newsreader (or whatever it's called), so dselect will stop hassling me. -Randy -- http://cogsci.ucsd.edu/~gobbel
