Thanks, Michael.

I no longer get an error message with the new version of trampver, so this
seems to have fix it. Of course, the two constants tramp-repository-branch
and tramp-repository-version now both have the value nil on an end user
system, but I assume that's both acceptable and intended.

Kind regards,

Geoff
