`C-h v load-path RET' will show you the directories that Emacs searches
for files to load. Try `C-h r' to browse the Emacs manual, then `i load
RET' to find out the details about how that works.
Here's what you should put in your .emacs file to allow the packages
from Debian to be found:
(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs22/site-lisp" t)
(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp" t)
