Description
Alright. It’s $(date +%Y), and I spent rather a lot of effort fixing a useless shell that I don’t give a shift about just so that we wouldn’t have this bogus excuse for the (setq require-final-newline t) in debathena-emacs-config.
Now that precise is deployed, I hope everyone can agree that it’s time for that to go. Debathena has no business misconfiguring our users’ editors.

Am I allowed to advocate for removing it entirely? People are done adjusting their dotfiles for pre-precise systems, and dotfiles are shared between all releases anyway.

Sure; I think I would be okay with removing it entirely.
Thoughts on whether the right way to do this is to fix #1240 with the conditional load-file statement and then further load a debathena-fix-tcsh.el file which may or may not exist? Or conditionalize on the version of tcsh at build time and install different versions of the .el file?
