Package: emacs21
Version: 21.4a-1
Severity: normal
Bug:
Enter C++-mode, and type:
/* C++ mode is crazy.
*
*/
Place the point at the end of the second line (note that there are two
spaces after the asterisk -- they seem to be vital, as the bug doesn't
manifest if I delete them). Press M-q to fill it. Now it says:
/* C+ mode is crazy. *
*/

Hello,
Thanks for your interest in improving Debian, and sorry that the bugs
were not fully resolved or closed in due time.
emacs21 packages have been removed from testing in 2009 [1], not
present even in the current stable. Consequently, these bugs are now
orphan (without maintainer assigned) so they probably will not be
attended/noticed further.
[1] http://packages.qa.debian.org/e/emacs21.html
The bugs deemed valid are going to be verified and reassigned, but the
current bugs that I'm closing now are very ancient (more than 10 years
sometimes) and marked as fixed-upstream years ago, with no recent
input, and are supposed to be fixed in emacs22 at the latest.
Please comment if you want think that some of the raised questions are
still pending and need to be addressed differently (e.g., reassigned
to other packages, etc.).
Cheers.
