Did you install emacs23-el? http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/emacs23-el
And you did you wont need ppa... etags
If you did and you dont get the el files still you probably have a
ubuntu packaging bug

Please let me know  -- What are all the emacs-related packages you
have installed?
ppa.. will give you unnecessary dependency-hell at a later point

If emacs is setup correctly the el files can stay compressed and emacs
will unzip before open-ing then.
