I get the message that "Package cl is deprecated" when trying to use the Modula 3 mode from [email protected]:modula3/cm3.git. The file in question is https://github.com/modula3/cm3/blob/master/m3-tools/gnuemacs/src/modula3.el

Is there any replacement? A workaround?

    It would be nice if you provided a URL for the file in question, so whoever is trying to help you could find the file without having to wade through the whole project (or, as I did, cloning the repo so I could search it more efficiently). If you make it easy for people to help you, I think you will get more and better help. – NickD Jun 30 '21 at 01:37

    Find out if the latest Module 3 mode needs cl.el. If so, go ahead and ignore the warning. Deprecation does not mean cl.el is not supported. Let the maintainers of Module 3 know, and they can update their code to adapt to using cl-lib.el or whatever is really needed. It's not your problem - it's theirs. And this is only if in fact the latest Module 3 code still really needs cl.el. And +1 to what @NickD said (but it's orthogonal to what I've said). – Drew Jun 30 '21 at 03:01
  • @Drew, my question was more in the line of what needs to be done to update said file. Point taken, – vonbrand Jul 01 '21 at 12:48
