It should not have happened anyway. I can think of three possibilities:
- You installed it manually.
- Some package depends on emacs22-nox | emacs22 instead of the other way
round or only the latter. Such a package is broken.
- Apt has a bug, it should always prefer the real package over a
provided one.

It is. Maybe the `emacs' alternative is set to manual on your system?

Please show the output of `update-alternatives --display emacs'.
