Looks like at least part of the problem is due to xemacs21, not emacs23.
If you remove xemacs21 temporarily (or permanently, for all I care), are
you able to resolve the problem? See also LP bug# #789706.
I am setting the Status of this bug report to Incomplete to mark it as
pending on your input. Once you have supplied the requested additional
information, it can be reverted back to Confirmed. Thanks for your
patience and cooperation!
** Changed in: emacs23 (Ubuntu)

Title:
emacs depencies broken after upgrade to ubunutu 12.10
Status in “emacs23” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Due to broken dependecies nigther the:
apt-get update / apt-get upgrade
synaptic
the ubunutu software center
are usable.
sudo dpkg --configure -a
as recommended as bugfix by (I think Synaptic) is broken either.
See below. Similar errors were visible during the upgrade to ubunutu 12.10.
Note:
The erlang mode of Emacs is not working.
-> Fatal error.
