... as a long-time debian user, I feel I should just cut in with a
knee-jerk defence: The debian developers are currently in the process of
refining and polishing a new release, Lenny.
I personally use debian unstable, which currently looks something like
how Lenny will and "apt-cache show emacs" gives the output below. Emacs
will shortly be 22.2+2-3 (!) in Debian.
