Package: lyskom-elisp-client
Severity: wishlist

lyskom-elisp-client has Conflicts: emacs21 which causes emacs21 to be
removed if lyskom-elisp-client is installed.  It'd be much better to
simply skip the byte compile for emacs21 flavour.  It's fine if it can't
be used from emacs21, no need to remove it altogether.

Many elisp packages have that sort of flavour skip for emacsen they
don't support, for example things which don't work in xemacs.  It's
normally as easy as chucking into the install script something like

if [ "${FLAVOR}" = "emacs21" ];then
    echo "Skipping byte-compilation for emacs21: Not supported"
    exit 0
fi


It doesn't matter much if 50lyskom-elisp-client.el makes an autoload
when the .el is not available.  Though checking is a good thing and is
in fact needed for all emacs flavours when lyskom-elisp-client has been
"dpkg --remove", because that leaves 50lyskom-elisp-client.el without
any .el or .elc.
