Subject: documentation incorrect for function `define-package'?
Date: Fri, 24 Sep 2021 16:16:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87bl4iukia.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

The documentation for `define-package' function says:
EXTRA-PROPERTIES is currently unused.
But, indeed, it's not true.
In order for a multi-package to correctly work, and in particular to
`describe-package' to report correctly information on a multi-package,
it is necessary to specify keywords as :author, :keywords, and so on...
Neither function documentation nor info manual mention that.
Infact, if i specify only library headers containing that information,
describe-package don't report keywords, nor other tags.
