Subject: bug#52902: hydra.el out of date on GNU ELPA

From: Stefan Kangas <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 30 Dec 2021 12:35:47 -0500

Severity: wishlist

The hydra package on GNU ELPA is version 0.14, but the latest released
version was 0.15 in 2019.

How about changing the package specification in elpa.git to the
following, so that it is automatically updated in the future?  Oleh,
would that be okay with you?

Thanks in advance.
