I just noticed that things like xpm-mode.el are not in finder-inf.el..
This in on 19.15p7 , I don't have any 20.x at work.

It's seems like finder-inf.el wasn't update for a long time. (The
version in 19.15 is the same as in 19.14, but xpm-mode has been around
even longer).

Can we have this file updated for 19.16. Unfortunately

(defun finder-compile-keywords-make-dist ()
  "Regenerate `finder-inf.el' for the Emacs distribution."
  (finder-compile-keywords default-directory))

doesn't work for our lisp hierarchy, but calling
finder-compile-keywords with a nil argument should work.

For 20.3 this must probably become part of the build/dump processes
and include packages too.

I think that the packages finder is currently underused and needs some
marketing (I only know about it since it's hierarchy was nicked for custom)

P.S. At the very least  it should be in the "things to do at release
time" file. Unfortunately I don't have that so I cannot supply a patch
for you steve :-)
