As a not very helpful comment, I'll say that IMO the Debian
emacs-goodies package is mainly just a collection of very old stuff,
much of which may not work any more. Unless you know that you actually
need it, I would just apt-get purge it, because all it's likely to do is
complicate upgrades of the installed Emacs package (due to the way
Debian handles that). Ref eg this 4 year old report
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=705059
