On the off chance that you still have /tmp/elc_21gLxW.log on your
system, could you please attach it here?

Alternatively, if you can reliably reproduce this problem, could you
please examine the dpkg log file and obtain the corresponding tmp file
to attach here after you reproduce the problem?

Once this information is supplied, the status of this bug report can be
changed back from "Incomplete" to "New" (or ideally "Confirmed", if the
log file shows us what went wrong).

Thanks in advance; appreciate your patience.

Bug description:
  devscripts-el constantly prevents configuration of emacs24-nox during
  upgrades.

  one has to remove devscripts-el, configure emacs24-nox and then
  install devscripts-el back...

  i think i might have had enough and will switch to vim finally.
