yes, that does sound messy.  sorry your experience was so unfortunate.

i guess one question for the list: is there a general solution to the
"20200912" > "9.5" issue?  or, "now" that we are only distributing via
[git repository and] gnu elpa, will that issue disappear?  does this
new-fangled concept of "semantic versioning" come into play here?

possibly in the info pages we could have a section on
"re-installing/upgrading", to help people navigate this process.  (once
we, ourselves, have a map.)

cheers, Greg
