Now I'm seeing them because I am actaully writing more elisp code rather than little snippets. I've just been noticing that the build is complaining a lot more about various deprecated functions/macros like flet (use cl-flet) more now so I thought all of the warnings were of a newer character. > >> Could someone explain why these warnings are being generated? > > No point repeating ancient history.
