Maybe this will help, concerning updating JDEE via the XEmacs packaging
system:
Usually this simply doesn't work for me. I can't quite remember what
errors I get, but Wrong type argument sounds familiar :)
Anyway, what I do is download the Pre-release versions of semantic,
speedbar etc using the XEmacs packager (they're usually up to date).
Then I download the JDEE latest version from the site, and install it
manually like the XEmacs packager would do (this means, in two seperate
dirs for the java files and lisp files, as explained somewhere on the
site). Warning: I just like this solution cause then I can still use the
packager if I would want to - you pbb avoid lots of problems if you just
follow the instructions on the site.
However, and here's the interesting part, I have to remove any compiled
lisp files from the jde dir to make it work. Even if I just install the
(usually outdated) JDEE package using XEmacs, it still gives errors if I
use the compiled version. This gives some interesting issues when using
apt-get upgrade when it tries to install a new xemacs version ;) I
basically just remove the .elc files from the lisp/jde dir after that.
dunno if my ramblings are in any way helpful - to summarize, I'd say try
removing the .elc files from your jde install dir and see what that does.

Hello,
I just upgraded my JDE to version 1.43 (via
the built-in stuff in the Options menu).
I am using XEmacs on RH 7.3, installed from
the RPM (xemacs-21.4.6-7).
After I upgraded I noticed that I can no
longer do C-k (kill-line). The error
message that I get is:
Wrong type argument: extentp, nil
I get the same error if I hit the DEL key or
if I try to kill a marked region with C-w.
Is this a known problem?
No.
What should I do to fix this?
Don't know. You don't give enough information. If you want my help,
submit a full problem report, including your XEmacs init file and a
backtrace of the error.
Is something
in the new JDE hogging these keys or
something similar?
No. The JDEE does not hog reserved keys.
