The Emacs Lisp manual at
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Simple-Packages.html#Simple-Packages
gives an example of a package library headers. This example includes a URL
line. Later, the reader is directed to
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Library-Headers.html#Library-Headers
for more information about the available headers. This second page makes no
mention of the URL line, and instead describes a Homepage line.
Surveying the Emacs source code, it turns out that both URL and Homepage are
used, although Homepage is more popular.
Should one of URL and Homepage be preferred to the other? Are they aliases?
Is one of these a typo?
