1. cleanly install emacs `apt-get install emacs24`
2. M-x report-emacs-bug
3. Expected: report-emacs-bug completes and leaves you in the email buffer to send your report
4. Actual: The "Load-path shadows:" step fails. The backtrace reveals that it is looking for "simple.el" and can't find it. (only simple.elc exists)
