I've waited most of a year for a response and am considering pursuing an NMU for this bug if it's not resolved by the time the other blockers for smartparens have been resolved. I took a quick stab at my proposed solution and will have to spend some time deducing what style of installation you'd prefer. Please consider taking the time to fix this so it doesn't come to that :-) Sincerely, Nicholas P.S. ideally it would be nice to see this package converted to use dh-elpa, but I suspect you'd be against it, because it seems like XEmacs support is a priority, and this conversion drops support for XEmacs. Personally I believe that's a worthwhile compromise due to all the time it saves from ongoing maintenance.
