I never quite grok'ed what the deal is with the identical 50vm.el and
50vm-init.el. Other packages don't do that. (But I think I no longer maintain
anything that ships .el code so I no longer look at the these much.)

I am actually enjoying Emacs 28 quite a bit since the update. Feels snappier.

Very minor issues: The "theme" / "face" is a little off for me (I tend to run
both under x11/wayland and inside byobu/tmux and the latter is little
difference). And when running in daemon mode `emacsclient -c` no longer
starts an initial frame so I am back to old school server-start.

Yes. Have not heard yet from the maintainer but it would be good to add this,
and of course figure out why it balks with elisp compilation.

Cheers, Dirk

I vote for adding this fix into a new vm version for bookworm proposed
