Unless a user wants to stick with the old version of TeXmacs. What I
normally do in this situation is:
cp foo-$OLDVER-src.tar.bz2 libfooN/libfooN-$OLDVER-src.tar.bz2
cat libfooN/setup.hint |\
sed -e '/^external-source/d' \
-e 's/^category:.*$/category: _obsolete/' > libfooN/setup.hint2
mv libfooN/setup.hint2 libfooN/setup.hint
rm foo-$OLDVER*bz2
