@era.  Thanks.  In the end, I uninstalled everything (a long list)
except for dictionaries-common, which had too many things depending on
it.  I then reinstalled the already present (but "unconfigured")
dictionaries-common.  Finally, I tried replacing emacs and xemacs21.
They installed, though I got some odd warnings.  (See attachment.)

Finally, I've rebooted.  On reboot, I get:

"System program problem detected
"Do you want to report the problem now?

"Sorry, Ubuntu 12.10 has experienced an internal error.
"If you notice further problems, try restarting the computer"

dmesg's last lines shows:

"evolution-calen[2182]: segfault at 1 ip 00000...01 sp 00007fffb8f03wc8
error 14 in evolution-calendar factory [400000+1000]"

I'll add that after the update, I have developed another problem, which is 
something like this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/699802

If I press Ctrl-Alt-F1 and then Ctrl-Alt-F7, I can get my password
prompt to decrypt my disk.
