Bug#584608: eekboek: emacs auto-mode-alist under dpkg --remove

[Kevin Ryde]

Package: eekboek
Version: 2.00.02-2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
File: /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50eekboek.el

After a "dpkg --remove eekboek" (but not a --purge), visiting a .eb file
in emacs gets an error

    File mode specification error: (file-error "Cannot open load file" "eekboek-mode")

where I hoped it would just use fundamental-mode.

site-start files like 50eekboek.el should generally skip if the package
is removed but not purged, eg.

(if (not (file-exists-p "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/eekboek-mode.el"))
    (message "eekboek removed but not purged, skipping setup")

  ;; setups here ...
  )
