[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Severity: wishlist

Hi Michael,

IIUC, Tramp now requires Emacs 28.1 to run (based on the check in
trampver.el).  If that is correct, could we stop relying on the
compatibility aliases cl-cXXXXr now?  These functions are built-in
since Emacs 26.1.  Please see the attached.

Thanks, done in commit d06606ff42b.

BTW, not that I know anything about the specifics of how Tramp is
distributed, but should tramp.el have a "Package-Requires" header,
perhaps?

No. See elpa-packages:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
 (tramp			:url "https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/tramp.git"
  :branch "externals/tramp"
  :main-file "trampver.el"
  :make ("autoloads" "info")
  :doc "texi/tramp.texi")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The main file is "trampver.el".

Best regards, Michael.
