Thanks for the reply.

I had some problems using emacs23 in Karmic. Several errors loading my .emacs and a non functional emacs-lisp menu. Using the ppa from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-elisp/+archive/ppa everything works as expected using the same .emacs.

What is the difference between the emacs23 and emacs-snapshot-gtk packages?

I have been using the emacs-snapshot package for a long time, since the era of Ubuntu 7.04, and it worked fine and I got all the latest versions of emacs with it. Now, I just installed 9.10 from scratch, and when I search for emacs on apt-cache, I get the following relevant packages:

 * emacs23
 * emacs-snapshot-gtk

The emacs-version for emacs23 returns:

"GNU Emacs 23.1.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.2) of 2009-10-15 on yellow, modified by Debian"

For emacs-snapshot-gtk, I get:

"GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.0) of 2009-09-27 on crested, modified by Debian"

Which one would be the most recent version (or better package to use)?
