+ AFFECTS: users of packages that depend on Emacs
+ AUTHOR: jrm@FreeBSD.org
+
+ With the release of Emacs version 26.1, the major version of editors/emacs
+ changed from 25 to 26, so the names of packages that depend on Emacs have also
+ changed. For example, pdf-tools-emacs25-0.80.79_1 is now called
+ pdf-tools-emacs26-0.80.79_1. The name change means simply running `pkg
+ upgrade` will not upgrade foo-emacs25-x to foo-emacs26-x.
+
+ To list the packages to upgrade, use
+
+ # pkg info \*emacs25\*
+
+ then install the new version for each with
+
+ # pkg install foo-emacs26
+
+ pkg should remove the old and install the new packages.
