Any ideas? What needs to be done?
well I got all kinds of byte compile warnings too and they did not
seem to matter, (I think they are just compiler warnings like you see
with C code, still annoying I hate warnings :) )
you have to watch the output very carefully to see the right error,
maybe tee would be useful here?
I also had alot of errors when installing the slink system before
upgrading to potato, things like:
ldconfig: warning blah is not a symlink
ldconfig: warning blah is not a symlink
ldconfig: warning blah is not a symlink
ldconfig: warning blah is not a symlink
where blah is one of about 4 libraries this repeated over and over,
but there seem to be not any trouble, are these warnings normal for a
debian install? there were also some ldconfig: blah file not found
errors here and there.
errors just bother me, maybe im idealistic but I prefer to have
completely error/warning free install/compiles :-)
all I can tell you on the emacs is that there is some dependency that
is not declared in the deb, and just carefully watch all the output
and note all errors (i think you can safely ignore the compiler
warnings)
I don't think I was able to avoid installing emacs 19 along with 20 though.
I definitely think there is something fishy with the potato emacs
packages, maybe you/we should bring this up on devel? (I am not yet
totally familier with the debian procedures for possible bugs like
this...)
