In Sarge there was only the package `emacs21'. Now in Etch we have also
`emacs', but the difference between the two is not clear to me. What should I
install in order to use the Emacs editor, `emacs' or `emacs21'?
I don't have "emacs" (etch). I do have:
(0) heretic /home/keeling/procmail_ pkgs emacs | egrep '^i'
i emacs21 - The GNU Emacs editor
i A emacs21-bin-common - The GNU Emacs editor's shared, architectur
i A emacs21-common - The GNU Emacs editor's shared, architectur
i A emacsen-common - Common facilities for all emacsen
# alias pkgs='aptitude search'
FYI, "emacs" is a metapackage:
Provides: editor, emacsen, info-browser, mail-reader, news-reader
and installing "emacs" may drag in stuff you may not have intended to get.
