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’.
