Subject: bug#22055: Some Elpa packages don't provide a feature
Date: Sun, 29 Nov 2015 20:34:37 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87d1usd2gi.fsf@bernoul.li> (raw)
The following Elpa packages do not provide a feature: `ada-ref-man',
`transcribe', and `uni-confusables'. I believe all packages should
contain a library which provides the appropriate feature.
`transcribe' additionally violates many other conventions. The various
section headers lack the space after the semicolons. Not a single
symbol is properly prefixed or documented. It should probably be
removed.
`load-relative' also doesn't provide its feature using `provide', but
that is intentional - it uses the alternative `provide-me' form, which
it itself defines. I cannot really see what's so great about being
able to write `(provide-me)' instead of `(provide 'the-feature)', but
some people obviously thought it that was a good idea. Anyway, should
`load-relative' itself really use `provide-me'?
