devscripts-el cannot be installed in the same transaction as emacs

Upstream bug:  LP:1322260

Description

We should consider not requiring them for Debathena. (It was possibly a mistake to require debathena-debian-dev.)

The exact cause of the failure is unclear but based on Debian 734531 et al, it seems like it's a poor interaction between emacsen-common 2.0.6+ and dh_installemacsen in dh9.

Installing emacs24 (and thus emacsen-common) _before_ installing workstation fixes ("fixes") this. It's unclear if we should pre-depend on emacs, or just punt debathena-debian-dev from extra-software and assume that nobody is building debian packages besides us, or what.
