Bit more detail for anyone who's interested: debian has various Emacs packages available in its own repos, so it may be useful to distinguish between ELPA (the Emacs package manager) and the completely separate apt/aptitude/synaptic/dpkg versions of a package. Ubuntu comes under the debian family for these purposes.
