Subject: Re: Merging Finder into package mechanism
Date: Sun, 29 Aug 2010 20:46:30 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87pqx1dj15.fsf@stupidchicken.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87hbie8ppy.fsf@stupidchicken.com> (Chong Yidong's message of "Sat, 28 Aug 2010 16:08:41 -0400")

I've checked in a change to make Finder set package--builtins rather
than its own finder-package-info variable.  No Finder functions have
been deleted, but the entries in the *Finder* buffer now generate
package-menu buffers instead of *Finder Category* buffers; and thus
*Help* buffers from `describe-package' have replaced *Finder Package*
buffers.

This also means that `M-x list-packages' now contains a long list of
built-in packages, generated at compile time, instead of the short
hardcoded list we had before.  I've added "Package:" headers to
numerous Lisp files to group them into sensible built-in packages;
if I've missed any, let me know.

Searching elpa packages by keyword is not implemented yet.
