Actually we’re 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’s why we instead refer to upstream URLs (on GitHub or other hosting
sites.)

Could you resent this series with such URLs?  I understand it’s
cumbersome but it’s 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 <at> debbugs.gnu.org
address.)

Thanks in advance,
Ludo’.
