Saqib - If you don't specify whether you want emacs19 or emacs20, then apt-get will choose based on the "Depends" and "Conflicts" lines of the packages it is installing. emacspeak-ss has a dependency that will be satisfied by either emacs19 or emacs20. emacs19 happens to be listed first. If you want emacs20 instead, then you can install it and uninstall emacs19. Use "apt-cache show emacspeak" to display information on the package. - Jim Van Zandt >From: "Saqib Shaikh" <ss@saqibshaikh.com> >Content-Type: text/plain; > charset="iso-8859-1" >X-Priority: 3 (Normal) >X-MSMail-Priority: Normal >Importance: Normal >X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.50.4522.1200 >X-Loop: blinux-list@redhat.com >Sender: blinux-list-admin@redhat.com >X-BeenThere: blinux-list@redhat.com >X-Mailman-Version: 2.0.1 >Precedence: bulk >Reply-To: blinux-list@redhat.com >List-Help: <mailto:blinux-list-request@redhat.com?subject=help> >List-Post: <mailto:blinux-list@redhat.com> >List-Subscribe: <https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list>, > <mailto:blinux-list-request@redhat.com?subject=subscribe> >List-Id: Linux for blind general discussion <blinux-list.redhat.com> >List-Unsubscribe: <https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list>, > <mailto:blinux-list-request@redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe> >List-Archive: <https://listman.redhat.com/pipermail/blinux-list/> >Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2001 17:46:34 +0100 > >hi, > >under debian i type: >apt-get install emacspeak-ss vm > >on a newly installed base system. as expected thisinstalls emacspeak plus >the vm mail reader. however, in order to fulfill the requirements of >emacspeak it gets emacs19, and to fulfill those of vm it gets emacs20. how >can i just use one version of emacs and have all apps configured for this >version? > >i am using debian 2.1 potato. > >saqib
