Thanks but I know about advice, I was not sure about Stephens suggestion I made the question since I was very sure never ever have touched this function, that is not having used advice.

To disable the advice, type M-x Aidan> ad-deactivate RET , and type Aidan> package-admin-delete-binary-package as the response to Aidan> “Deactive advice of.” To solve the problem long-term, Aidan> find the line in the source tree that says ’defadvice Aidan> package-admin-delete-binary-package’ and fix it to avoid Aidan> the infinite recursion. Thanks I did not know about ad-deactivate. No the point is I cannot not do what you suggest, since it seems that this function does not exist, I try to type it and no completion occurs, even stranger, when looking up the function via, describe function, the function does not appear!? It seems that definitely something is very strange in this debian. (There are other oddies, like I cannot install 3rd pkg in ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages, but this is another story.) NEEDLESS to say Aidan, I appreciate your help, but *can't* you just use ASCII for ASCII messages
