Emacs 28 added a third required argument to ~define-obsolete-function-alias~
and friends.  Upstream has removed the aliases, but hasn't released a new version.

This change is not related to the build fix, it shouldn't be part of
this commit.

This has been fixed upstream, so you could also update the package to
the latest commit, see how it's done in the emacs-libgit package for
instance.

Those changes also shouldn't be part of this patch.

Could you please send an update version?

Thanks,

Closing.
