Bug#1100372: RM: seq-el -- ROM; obsolete, replaced by version in Emacs core



Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: ftp.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: remove
X-Debbugs-Cc: seq-el@packages.debian.org, 1098929@bugs.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:seq-el
Control: block -1 by 1100371

Quoting myself in #1098929:

> Upstream have decided that seq.el is stable enough that new versions
> won't be distributed separately from Emacs:
>
> ;; Note regarding the `seq' package on GNU ELPA:
> ;;
> ;; It was decided not to bother upgrading seq beyond 2.24 on GNU ELPA.
> ;; The main purpose of the GNU ELPA package was to encourage adoption
> ;; and accommodate changes more easily, but it's mature enough that
> ;; changes are fairly slow.  Thus, we can now rely on "the usual"
> ;; solutions to deal with compatibility issues.  (Bug#60990)
>
> We shouldn't ship a separate package anymore, especially given how Lisp
> in our elpa-* packages always overrides built-in versions of libraries.
> See <https://lists.debian.org/debian-emacsen/2025/02/msg00147.html>.

The only remaining rdep also has an RM bug filed.  Thanks!
