Actually we=E2=80=99re not done.   :-/

We cannot use melpa.org URLs because they are highly volatile.  For
instance, the URL for evil-magit.el in the patch that you sent is
already 404.

That=E2=80=99s why we instead refer to upstream URLs (on GitHub or other ho=
sting
sites.)

Could you resent this series with such URLs?  I understand it=E2=80=99s
cumbersome but it=E2=80=99s really important if we want to be able to build
these things even just a couple of weeks from now.

(Please send each updated patch to the right NNN@debbugs.gnu.org
address.)

Thanks in advance,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
