[Reinhard Tartler (siretart)]

the fix proposed in the related branch unbroke the upgrade for me

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package emacs-goodies-el - 35.12ubuntu1

---------------
emacs-goodies-el (35.12ubuntu1) wily; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
    - debian-changelog-mode.el: Teach about Ubuntu releases.
    - Includes a fix for LP: #1369333
  * Add wily to the list of allowed series.

emacs-goodies-el (35.12) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Bug fix: "please switch to emacs24", thanks to Gabriele Giacone
    (Closes: #754007).

emacs-goodies-el (35.11) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Complete dpatch -> quilt transition from 31.7 by removing dpatch code
    from debian/patch/* files
  * Quieten lintian warnings by removing executable bits from almost all
    files
  * Include make-orig.sh in source distribution (cvs-buildpackage does
    this anyway)
  * vm-bonus-el package removed - it's ancient and barely used anymore
  * Remove gnus-bonus-el from the source package (the binary package was
    removed in 35.6). This closes the bugs against it, even though they
    have not been fixed (Closes: #570276, #448441, #236919, #597035,
    #609698, #648607)
  * Fix piuparts error with a temporary patch, until emacsen-common (or
    whatever the true source of the bug is) is fixed. (Closes: #737202)
  * Add emacsen compat files (in line with new policy and current
    debhelper behaviour)
  * Rewrite rules to use nice debhelper stuff; have explicity quilt
    build-dependency
  * Rewrite copyright files to use DEP-5/copyright-format-1.0
  * Update Standards-Version

emacs-goodies-el (35.10) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Bug fix: "M-x debian-bug does not run bug script if it is a symlink",
    thanks to Sven Joachim for the patch and sorry for the long delay
    (Closes: #679390)

emacs-goodies-el (35.9) unstable; urgency=medium

  * dpkg-dev-el
  - debian-changelog-mode.el Bug fix: "default urgency to medium", thanks
    to Jonathan Wiltshire (Closes: #731105).
  * Bug fix: "fails to upgrade lenny -> squeeze -> wheezy ->
    jessie", thanks to Andreas Beckmann (Closes: #730066, #730069). Skip
    byte-compilation of markdown-mode.el for obsolete emacs22. I am
    surprsied that the lack of handling of such old versions gets a
    package kicked out of testing!
