Subject: bug#37122: [PATCH] Remove support for upgrading from old bookmark file format
Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2019 21:20:37 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
The old bookmark file format has not been used in Emacs since at least
version 19.34, released in 1996.  And that's a conservative estimate
-- it's probably even older.  I suggest that we remove the support for
converting it to the new bookmark file format completely in order to
not have to maintain this ancient code.

Please see the attached patch.

Thanks,
Stefan Kangas
