I > only get one named "emacs22". You seem to have a problem with the "emacs" alternative that has likely been caused by removing the preferred flavor (emacs-snapshot?). See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=433567 for an instance of this problem. I'd suggest you try "sudo update-alternatives --auto emacs" and see if this fixes the problem.
