Xref on GNU ELPA missing version: http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/xref.html

Hi Stefan,

In elpa.git's

commit e2e82cdea95d26c914b2e83acfc6e83230f4163b

  * externals-list ("eldoc", "project", "xref"): New :core packages

I did what we had agreed.  Today I see project, and eldoc showing up
in the http://elpa.gnu.org/packages list, as expected, but xref doesn't
have a version identifier. Why is this happening?

Is it safe to require from Eglot?

João

PS: Trying to make elpa.git in my machine gets me an error message

In toplevel form:

I still don't know what happened but it might have been the fact
that xref.el depended on another package that was just as brand
new: project.e;.  Dmitry changed the project.el version number and
I fixed xref.el to depend on that.  Bumped xref.el's "Version:", too.

Let's see what tomorrow brings,
João
