I have the same problem after manually remove emacs: cp: cannot stat `/etc/emacs/site-start.d/00debian-vars.el': No such file or directory
When I looked into the directory under /etc/emacs/site-start.d/. I found nothing. Fortunately, I have another Ubuntu desktop. when I looked into the same folder, I find the following: $ ls /etc/emacs site-start.d site-start.el $ ls /etc/emacs/site-start.d/ 00debian-vars.el 50dictionaries-common.el 50latex-cjk-common.el 50asymptote.el 50global.el 50maxima-emacs.el 50autoconf.el 50gnuplot-mode.el I just replace the empty /etc/emacs folder, and run $sudo apt-get -f install Aha, everything is now perfect.
