No -- but I had enabled backports for a couple other packages. I followed the forum post http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2701612&postcount=26 and downgraded from backports with `sudo apt-get install hal=0.5.8.1-4ubuntu12 libhal-storage1=0.5.8.1-4ubuntu12 libhal1=0.5.8.1-4ubuntu12` and I've s

I just upgraded to Edgy yesterday, and found that a bunch of packages had been "orphaned" (like gnumeric), where dpkg didn't remember that the binary was installed. Perhaps quack-el was in an odd state of having .el's lying around and emacs-install picking it up? Nevertheless, I could not get the
