You're mistaken here. The new guidelines still allow for a packager to split out the Emacs relevant bits into a sub-package. But, if the package contains just one or two helper files for Emacs support and the packager would rather keep them in the main package, (s)he can do that and Require the emacs-filesystem packge. To reiterate: noone is forced to keep Emacs add-ons in the main package. Packager discretion can be applied. > Emacs is not installed > by default and I do not use Emacs, nor will I ever. I'm not sure why having > sub-packages was such a negative thing. Can we bring back sub-packages? I don't understand why you object so much to the emacs-filesystem package - it contains 3 empty directories only. Can you clarify?
