Dear Friends,
It seems that #'define-package is now obsolete (or has been for a while,
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/?id=ade7a212a882540178d9504e7e0bd3be3bf1fd41):
(defun define-package ( _name-string _version-string
&optional _docstring _requirements
&rest _extra-properties)
"[...]"
(declare (obsolete nil "29.1") (indent defun))
(error "Don't call me!"))
Does that mean from now on we just use the constructor
#'package-desc-create in `foobar-pkg.el' files?

What are you trying to do? It might be that there are some
misconceptions to the point of the -pkg.el file. In general, you don't
need to write these files yourself, as they are either generated by a
package archive or a package manager.

I see. I thought such file (`-pkg.el') was to be hand-rolled.
