So... what then ? Some contrib/ > directory lost in the space ? Both options are undesirable, IMHO. If you want to do something sensible from the Emacs side, then get Emacs to spin out all "built-in" packages that are not necessary for dumping Emacs to GNUÂ ELPA and then bundle them into the release from there. That will demonstrate the shortcomings of package manager as it exists today very clearly and hopefully provide a strong push to fix it.
