Well, “many Emacs packages” is not just 16 ones. ;-)

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ag --scheme emacs-transient -c
emacs-xyz.scm:19
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

(3 matches are from the definition of emacs-transient.)


I guess these Emacs packages are still using the package emacs-transient
because they have not been updated yet, or maybe it is still a
requirement from upstream.

Which are the Emacs packages you are using without an explicit mention
to emacs-transient?
