Several comments, 1. I «load» via require and I therefore those message are somewhat difficult to notice. 2. When I compile I of course see the warnings, but do you suggest that I just byte compile all my files after installing a new Emacs version? 3. I still find the naming «find-file-not-found-functions» and therefore the call (add-hook 'find-file-not-found-functions 'insert-auto-insert-files 'append) counterintuitive, (now it is too late, but why wasn't this called «find-file-not-found-hook-functions» or something like this). 4. BTW (define-obsolete-variable-alias 'find-file-not-found-hooks 'find-file-not-found-functions "22.1") works for me (defalias 'find-file-not-found-hooks 'find-file-not-found-functions) does not. 5. I still don't gasp the advantage of renaming functions and variables. I understand the benefit of introducing new functions and variables but the benefit of renaming variables and functions I fail to see. -- I strongly condemn Hamas heinous despicable pogroms/atrocities on Israel I strongly condemn Putin's war of aggression against Ukraine. I support to deliver weapons to Ukraine's military. I support the EU and NATO membership of Ukraine.
