I think the whole "next" category is problematic. Why not just have a version number of that package that's different from the "main" one? So instead of emacs-next have emacs-30.0.9 or whatever. At least here the choice of arbitrariness is visible. A "next" makes no sense. > In case you don't know about "--with-latest", that's the supported way to > install the latest master branch of a package.
