Package cl is deprecated #284

Closed fengdlm closed 2 years ago

fengdlm commented 2 years ago

Hi,

Is there any plan to remove the dependency on cl-lib? Every time I start emacs, I see this message Package cl is deprecated, I assume eventually emacs will retire cl-lib.

There is no such plan. The reason for deprecating the cl package is that it takes liberties with the elisp namespace and (in particular) redefines some standard functions and macros. cl-lib uses the cl- prefix for all its definitions.

Thanks for the explanation.
