First update on Big Sur failed. For half an hour no visible progress, only "windscreen wiper". I'll try again afterwards.

While I was scrolling through the Sparkle window that described the changes, the X clients launched via ~/.xinitrc kind of flickered, where visible and invisible and visible again. GNU Emacs 28.0.50 died and XTerm too.

Patriotism, n. Combustible rubbish ready to the torch of any one ambitious to illuminate his name. In Dr. Johnson's famous dictionary patriotism is defined as the last resort of a scoundrel. With all due respect to an enlightened but inferior lexicographer I beg to submit it is the first.
