You missed the very long thread in this list last month with the subject "I am ANGRY with Debian" where this topic was discussed. http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2007/05/msg04442.html In summary, no, recent emacs is not available in Sid and won't be for some time. This is a result of the GNU GFDL not being DFSG-free. The emacs packages have been orphaned: http://lists.debian.org/debian-emacsen/2007/03/msg00012.html Fortunately Romain Francoise has set up an unofficial emacs-snapshot that may provide relief for emacs users desiring something newer than emacs21. http://lists.debian.org/debian-emacsen/2007/04/msg00002.html Bob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
