[Bug 278807] Re: package cmake 2.6.0-4ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2

[Frederick F. Kautz IV]

I should of posted the workaround on my original post for other readers.

Install emacs, then as a separate install transaction install cmake.

e.g. 
apt-get install emacs
apt-get install cmake
OR
apt-get install cmake

DON'T apt-get install emacs cmake

A suboptimal solution is to make cmake depend on emacs. However, cmake
does not require emacs to work and emacs is a fairly large dependency.

My proposed solution is as follows:
separate cmake into two packages:
cmake (with emacs specific files removed)
emacs-cmake which depends on emacsen-common
