Unclear what could have caused this. My hunch is that this would be more likely to be a dpkg / aptitude / synaptic problem than an Emacs problem. Can you please reply back with the output of ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info/emacs*

Was there a disk full condition at any point when you tried to install Emacs?

I'm setting the Status of this bug report to Incomplete to mark it as pending on your input. It can be changed back to New (or even Confirmed) once you follow up with the requested information. Thank you.
