Launch it and then check the variable load-path – it won't destroy  
your system. If load-path contains /etc/emacs21 and the GNU Emacs 21  
files are different from those of version 22, then it's probably  
better to send a message to the Ubuntu company and to debian, since  
one such file is named 00debian-vars.elc. The other file is *not* a  
part of GNU Emacs.

Using a statement like this one

        (defadvice load (before debug-log activate)
          (message "(Tipp von Kai G) Lade jetzt: %s" (ad-get-arg 0)))

in the system init file can make GNU Emacs to show all files it has  
loaded afterwards.


Anyway, it seems that Ubuntu linux is buggy when it can't remove what  
it has installed before. A bug report seems to be recommended.
