This is what Debian popularity contest graph shows: http://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=emacs22-bin-common%2Cemacs23-bin-common%2Cemacs21-bin-common%2Cxemacs21-mule&show_vote=on&want_legend=on&from_date=&to_date=&hlght_date=&date_fmt=%25Y-%25m&beenhere=1 Debian Sid (the unstable development branch) does not have Emacs 21 anymore so I guess it will be dropped from next Debian release.
