Title:
  rebuild with new debhelper to get trigger support

  Fix Released
Status in mjpegtools package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in emacs23 source package in Lucid:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The postinst script of the 'emacs23-common' package has explicit calls
  to 'install-info'. Since lucid, this provokes confusing warning
  messages, because info files are now supposed to be registered via
  triggers.

  Test Case:
  # apt-get install --reinstall emacs23-common

  Result:
  >> LANG=C sudo apt-get install --reinstall emacs23-common
  [...]
  Setting up emacs23-common (23.1+1-4ubuntu7) ...
  Ignoring install-info called from maintainer script
  The package emacs23-common should be rebuilt with new debhelper to get trigger support

  Expected Result:
  Same output with the repeated and confusing message shown above.

  
  Original Report:
  Binary package hint: emacs23

  a couple of packages seem to be in need of some debhelper maintenance.
  Example from an aptitude upgrade run:
