[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I meant the seq package provided by GNU ELPA repository. Guess I slipped on
the keyboard there. My Emacs selects the seq25.el from ELPA.

I have now patched it for myself locally. But I believe this can cause
really big frustrations and confusion for people in the future. I guess one
way to solve it would be to push a change that checks the Emacs version and
provides different implementation, as 27 haven’t been released yet.

Thank you for catching my mistake.
