I am now encountering the same bug in Precise 12.04 after removing a

All these systems run stock LaTeX and Emacs from the default repos. I have

package.
Hope it works for you, bob.

The *.el symlink looks like an side effect of the a2ps postinst script.
It should rightfully expect *.el to expand, but if it the files are not

The .list file is supposed to contain a list of all the files installed
by the emacs23 package. It is managed by dpkg. Reinstalling emacs23
should recreate this file, with a list of all files installed.
The lack of required files from various packages is definitely the root
cause here. When a p

Sorry, but that doesn't work either:
bob$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall --purge emacsen-common
[sudo] password for bob:

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required
This sounds like bug #582341 -- does apt-get install --reinstall --purge
emacsen-common work for you? I also speculate that the root cause could
be bug #512096.

The symptoms seem to point to missing files. I have been speculating
that these might be caused by dpkg fsync problems. In any event, you
may be able to recover by purging, then reinstalling dictionaries-
