Re: Package-Directory silently changed (or loudly but I missed it?)

I haven't looked into it more deeply Holger> since then (i.e. whether autoloads work). Hrx. It actually changed the other way. Just plain "packages" was the name of the directory in 20.4, and we changed it to be xxx-package for 21.1. However, 21.1 still accepts "packages" for compatibility reasons. 21.2 won't anymore. Someone from the pui folks may need to look into this. -- Cheers =8-} Chipsy Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla
