Package: emacs-goodies-el Version: 21.0-1 Severity: normal I can't believe I never noticed this before, but it likely affects the majority of Elisp package. See if my reasoning is flawed...
If I do `apt-get remove emacs-goodies-el' which is a pretty method these days, or if I `dpkg --remove emacs-goodies-el', the _config_ file /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50emacs-goodies-el.el stays in place. The next time I start Emacs, it loads the file. Since I have not added a condition in this file about `emacs-goodies-el' actually being installed, the elisp is evaluated anyway. Then can do: M-x apt-utils-show-package and get the error: call-interactively: Cannot open load file: apt-utils e.g. all my autoloads are setup, but they shouldn't. A quick look at my system shows that the `gnus' package checks for this, but few others. I know I'm guilty. Comments?
