Since debathena-emacs-config works by installing a conffile, and dpkg doesn’t delete conffiles on package removal, its effects are persistent until the package is manually purged.

Reported by andersk, 16 years ago.

debathena-emacs-config ended up with a lot of cruft that seems to have been added based on the preferences of the Athena developers at the time. Much of it was removed in r23107, but there is still a fair amount left:

(setq require-final-newline t)
(setq mouse-yank-at-point t)
(blink-cursor-mode 0)

There’s also some stuff that’s no longer needed or just wrong:

(setq inhibit-local-variables t)
(setq bug-gnu-emacs "bugs@mit.edu")
(setq mail-host-address "mit.edu")
(setq tex-dvi-print-command "dvips")
(setq initial-major-mode …)
(setq initial-scratch-message …)

The auto-save changes are useful, but they should be modified to take effect only if DEBATHENA_HOME_TYPE=afs.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 debathena-extra-software : Depends: compizconfig-settings-manager which is a virtual package.
                            Depends: chromium-browser which is a virtual package.
                            Depends: icedtea6-plugin which is a virtual package.

• compizconfig-settings-manager was removed from jessie for RC bugs (not sure which ones). It’s still in sid.
• chromium-browser was renamed to chromium in wheezy.
• icedtea6-plugin is obsolete in all supported distros; we want the icedtea-plugin metapackage instead.
